> .. the conception of wealth.. [in]this framing of #justice and #equity is fundamentally #mimetic: “Until I have what the Other has, I am poor”; or “Not till I have what the Other has will justice be served.”.. this conception of wealth is founded on the #Other’s conception of #TheGoodLife, as a standard to be aspired to.. if the Other’s conception of the Good Life were to change, then the resonances would be felt everywhere.
