Even one convinced by the arguments of Chapter 11 might still find my use of “currency” metaphors in the context of respect stretched. Chapter 9 characterized “valorization” as a mode of relative valuation, and our ordinary (financial) understanding of currency similarly connotes a basis for evaluative comparison. However, one might reasonably complain that nothing I have said so far really entitles me to the claim that love and respect have any comparative element. Perhaps the affective modes of love and respect are, as I have argued, frameworks whose operation tells us something about how people matter to significant others, but it remains to show that they can inform us about how people matter relative to one another.
