“This collection contains everything we need to understand the world that gave us Trump, and to arm ourselves for the battles to come” (Sarah Jaffe, author of Necessary Trouble: Americans in Revolt). The Democratic Party and mainstream liberal organizations have shown themselves to be completely inadequate to address the key questions facing working people today. The corporate-friendly wing of the party, especially in the aftermath of the Great Recession in 2008, has created conditions that led to the Trump phenomenon in the international context of rising right-wing populism. These essays from a wide variety of thinkers delve into topics of economic inequality and exploitation, gender and cultural identity, and how the neglect of the working class by establishment politicians has had consequences that urgently need to be addressed.

Overcoming Functional Neurological Symptoms: A Five Areas Approach

Three decades have passed since the heyday of the women's liberation movement, yet women remain oppressed the world over. Mainstream feminism has shifted steadily rightward since the 1970s - embracing Bush's war on Afghanistan in 2001 and even endorsing Democratic Party efforts to seek common ground' with abortion opponents after Kerry's defeat in 2004. This approach has proven disastrous for women, from the US to Afghanistan. This collection of essays examines these issues from a Marxist perspective.'

“A valuable and uncommon perspective . . . The book covers both theory of women’s oppression and the history and politics of women’s movements.” —Dana L. Cloud, author of Reality Bites More than forty years after the women’s liberation movement of the 1960s, women remain without equal rights. If anything, each decade that has passed without a fighting women’s movement has seen a rise in blatant sexism and the further erosion of the gains that were won in the 1960s and 1970s. Yet liberal feminist organizations have followed the Democratic Party even as it has continually tacked rightward since the 1980s. This fully revised edition examines these issues from a Marxist perspective, focusing on the centrality of race and class. It includes chapters on the legacy of Black feminism and other movements of women of color and the importance of the concept of intersectionality. In addition, Women and Socialism: Class, Race, and Capital explores the contributions of socialist feminists and Marxist feminists in further developing a Marxist analysis of women’s oppression amid the stirrings of a new movement today. Praise for Sharon Smith’s Subterranean Fire “Sharon Smith brings that history to life once again, blasting through the myths of the working class that Trump-era narratives cling to in order to connect us once again to the possibility of building broad solidarity.” —Sarah Jaffe, author of Work Won’t Love You Back “A veteran worker-intellectual brilliantly addresses the crisis of the labor movement, skewering those who believe that renewal can come from the top down, and encouraging those who are fighting to rebuild it from the bottom up.” —Mike Davis, author of Planet of Slums

Class, Race, and Capital

Amerikalı sosyalist yazar Sharon Smith, Kadınlar ve Sosyalizm kitabında kadın sorununun sınıf, ideoloji ve dinle ilişkisini sade ve akıcı bir dille ele alıyor. Kürtaj hakkı, kadın ve erkeklere eşit ücret, ev içinde iş bölümü gibi kadın hareketlerinin ilk filizlendiği dönemlerden bu yana kadın hareketinin temel gündemini oluşturan konuları Marksist bir yaklaşımla inceliyor. Yanı sıra, kürtaj, türban, din ve kadın gibi konulara da eğiliyor. Kadın hareketinin gündemleri kadar kendisini de eleştirel bir şekilde ele alan yazar, feminizmin 1960'lardan itibaren nasıl sağa kaymaya başladığını, hem kuramsal üretimlerinden hem de kadın haklarıyla ilgili konularda sergiledikleri tutumlarından yola çıkarak ortaya koyuyor. ABD'nin kadın hakları konusundaki kirli siciline geniş bir yer ayıran kitap, bu kirli sicilin izlerini yalnızca ülke sınırlarında değil, demokrasi götürmek bahanesiyle işgal ettiği topraklarda da sürüyor. Yanı sıra, kürtaj, türban, İslamiyet ve kadın gibi konulara da eğiliyor. Kadınlar ve Sosyalizm, kadınların kurtuluşunun sosyalizmde olduğunu tarihsel bir yaklaşımla ve güncel olgulardan yola çıkarak savunuyor.
