Indispensable, necesario, impactante. No sé cómo agradecer este libro. Una revision histórica necesaria sobre la caza de brujas en Europa durante los siglos XV-XVIII (también algunos breves apuntes en América durante la colonización). Un profundo ensayo con una muy potente investigación detrás para entender cómo la caza de brujas tuvo tanta importancia como el expolio de América en el establecimiento del sistema capitalista. Federici escribe de una manera muy cercana y circular. No te pierdes en ningún momento. Magnífico

Incredible work of scholarship on an often under-examined historical process: the witch hunts. My only criticism would be that the last chapter could have use more elaboration on how exactly the more recent witch hunts in Africa and Latin America are connected to structural adjustment programs from the IMF and the World Bank. Interesting idea, I just think she should have expanded more on it. But overall, an absolute must-read for anyone interested in the history of women's subjugation and capitalism.

tremendously important and readable historical/theoretical work that advances a fundamentally interesting if flawed thesis. the sections on european history absolutely shine, the later sections trying to link this to colonization and ongoing globalization projects not so much. but still glad i read it!
