NEWS & LETTERS, June 2004For Women's Studies: Philosophy, History, Sociology"As will be evident throughout this book (which covers 35 years of writings on a single suject, Women's Liberation), the sharp differentiation between Marx's Marxism and post-Marx Marxism is not limited to that one question. A deep gulf existed between Marx's multilinear view of all human development and Engels' unilinear view. Which is why this single subject--Women's Liberation, whether viewed as it relates to philosophy or to forms of organization--is inseparable from the dialectics of revolution." --From WOMEN'S LIBERATION AND THE DIALECTICS OF REVOLUTION: REACHING FOR THE FUTURE * * * "Marx's ETHNOLOGICAL NOTEBOOKS are crucial in Raya Dunayevskaya's eyes because they show Marx at a point in his life where his idea of revolution was becoming even more comprehensive; the colonialism that evolved out of capitalism forced him to return to precolonial societies to study human relations and 'to see the possibility of new human relations,' Dunayevskaya wrote, as Marx sensed they would burst forth from a new type of revolution.'" --From Adrienne Rich's Forward to ROSA LUXEMBURG, WOMEN'S LIBERATION, AND MARX'S PHILOSOPHY OF REVOLUTION To order, see http://www.newsandletters.org/about.htm |
