Feminist International: How to Change Everything
No Customer Reviews
Leader of Latin America's powerful new women's movement rethinks the meaning of feminist politics Recent years have seen massive feminist mobilizations in virtually every continent, overturning social mores and repressive legislation. As women filled the streets of Argentina and Madrid, in Italy and Poland, they've transformed the meaning of radical politics and the grammar of various struggles. In this brilliant and kaleidoscopic look at the emerging feminist international, Veronica Gago uses the women's strike as both a concept and a collective experience. At once a gripping political analysis and a theoretically-charged manifesto, The Feminist International draws on the authors rich experience with radical movements to enter into ongoing debates in feminist and marxist theory: from social reproduction and domestic work to the intertwining of financial and gender violence, as well as controversies surrounding the neo-extractivist model of development, the possibilities and limits of left populism, and the ever-vexed nexus of gender-race-class. Gago's feminism is powerful call to abandon the rhetoric of victimization, and to instead mount a frontal challenge to both neo-liberal rule and the conservative counteroffensive. The Feminist Revolution asks what another theory of power might look like, one premised on our desire to change everything.
