Lise Vogel is a unique voice in feminist theory. This book collects her best essays, opening a window into the last half-century of US socialist feminism.
A trailblazer in the 1970s, Vogel planted the seeds for contemporary Social Reproduction Theory with her 'unitary theory' of capitalist exploitation and the oppression of women. Along with others, she challenged established views within the academy and movement by insisting that Marxist theory can accommodate not only class, but also race and gender. Today, her work is more popular than ever, inspiring socialist feminists to develop inclusive liberatory ideas for the next generation.
Selected from five decades of Vogel's work, including long out-of-print material, this volume is a crucial resource for readers interested in the intellectual history of Marxist feminism and twentieth-century activism.
Reviews / Votes
'Drawing on Marxist theory and integrating a feminist perspective, Vogel offers a compelling critique of bourgeois society and women's oppression-a critique that not only advances theory, but also engages deeply with the historical and political conditions of social transformation' -- Melda Yaman, Istanbul UniversityMore details
