A marvelous new collection.--Los Angeles Review of Books

Every socialist needs to read it now.--Socialist Action

Social Reproduction Theory is probably the first book to draw on the recent resurgent interest in developing a coherent Marxist-Feminist understanding of everyday life under capitalism. The ten essays here address a range of questions, with each contributor tackling the thorny problem of explaining just what social reproduction theory is. Though they do not always agree, each wrestles with the new and old questions that continue to be raised by feminists and theorists.

Readers new to the issues will learn much from the variety of points of view offered here. Those who have lived through previous women's liberation debates will find novel answer to old questions and examples that illustrate new points and previous points of view.

Crystallizing the essential principles of social reproductive theory, this anthology provides long-overdue analysis of everyday life under capitalism. It focuses on issues such as childcare, healthcare, education, family life, and the roles of gender, race, and sexuality--all of which are central to understanding the relationship between exploitation and social oppression. Chapters include:
