| Summary |
This selection, spanning six decades, traces the development of a new political perspective that would set out to redefine traditional views of the class struggle. James' starting point was the millions of unwaged women who, despite working at home and on land, were not seen as 'workers'. For her, the class struggle is the the conflict between the reproduction of the human race and the domination of a exploitative, detructive and war driven market. This lucid and jargon free read springs from the author's urgent need to find a better way forward |
