Women and Revolution: A Discussion of the Unhappy Marriage of Marxism and Feminism

About this book

The second volume in the South End Press Political Controversies Series on contemporary political theory and practice. The lead article The Unhappy Marriage of Marxism and Feminism by Heidi Hartmann argues that "the marriage of marxism and feminism has been like that between husband and wife depicted in English common law; marxism and feminism are one and that one is marxism... To continue the metaphor further either we need a healthier marriage or we need a divorce."
