In this slim but substantive piece Federici examines the history of the (particularly female) body during the transition to capitalism. She tirelessly excavates and links an array of subjects:
- The mind/body conflict necessary for successful labor production
- labor power and dismantling of worker solidarity
- colonialism and slavery
- witch hunts and the demonization of women
and so much more.
We are the duck and the mouse, the wolf is artificial scarcity resulting in desperate poverty, and the hunter is capitalism.
Give your child the gift of fun as revolutionary praxis this holiday season!
