Abstract

This essay draws on the works of Jacques Derrida and Bernard Stiegler, particularly the concept of the pharmakon, to outline a pharmacological critique of the concept of equity in Aristotle’s Nichomachean Ethics and Rhetoric and the Equitable remedies of the former Court of Chancery which make up the architecture of financial capitalism.
