A review by eharis
Caliban and the Witch: Women, the Body and Primitive Accumulation by Silvia Federici

5.0

genius fucking book. silvia federici is a legend. makes me wanna never read a piece of marxist literature that doesn’t take a strong feminist stance ever again. federici’s in-depth study of the integral role that women’s oppression played in the birth of capitalism via sowing class division along gendered lines clarifies that women’s liberation is a necessary condition for bringing about our collective liberation. 10/10 piece of writing. will refer back to this book for the rest of my life
