Feminism for the 99%: A Manifesto (in English)
Nancy Fraser
Synopsis "Feminism for the 99%: A Manifesto (in English)"
The organizers of the International Women's Strike "cut through the corporate feminist 'Lean In' noise to offer a feminism rooted not just in intersectionality . . . but also in economic justice"--for readers of Roxane Gay and Rebecca Solnit (Vogue). Feminism shouldn't start--or stop--with seeing women represented at the top of society. It should start with the 99%. Unaffordable housing, poverty wages, inadequate healthcare, border policing, climate change--these are not what you ordinarily hear feminists talking about. But aren't they the biggest issues for the vast majority of women around the globe? Taking as its inspiration the new wave of feminist militancy that has erupted globally, this manifesto makes a simple but powerful case: feminism shouldn't start--or stop--with the drive to have women represented at the top of their professions. It must focus on those at the bottom, and fight for the world they deserve. And that means targeting capitalism. Feminism must be anticapitalist, eco-socialist and antiracist.
Es una de las exponentes más destacadas del feminismo y la teoría crítica actuales. Formada al calor de las luchas por los derechos civiles y contra la Guerra de Vietnam, encara de modo heterodoxo la filosofía y la política, disciplinas que enseña en la New School for Social Research neoyorquina. Desde esa perspectiva, integra a su investigación una relectura de una enorme biblioteca –que va de Gramsci a la primera generación de la escuela de Frankfurt, la deconstrucción, Bourdieu y Foucault– para proponer críticas a la desigualdad y la explotación que no se vuelvan funcionales al neoliberalismo imperante, sino que se afiancen en un bloque de lucha por la auténtica justicia económica y social. Docente y doctora Honoris Causa en los principales centros de Europa y América, es autora de influyentes libros como Feminismo para el 99%, Iustitia Interrupta y Escalas de justicia. Sus cursos actuales indagan textos de Karl Marx (Gründisse) o Walter Benjamin, además de la relación entre capitalismo, naturaleza y crítica.
