Odrażające” kobiety z klasy robotniczej
Tekst jest fragmentem książki Complaints & Disorders. The Sexual Politics of Sickness, stanowiącej kontynuację monografii Witches, Midwives, and Nurses. Autorki próbują w nim dowieść, że historia medycyny jest skażona seksizmem, lekarze konsekwentnie traktowali kobiety z klasy robotniczej jako siedlisko chorób, a rządzący posługiwali się darwinizmem do uzasadniania seksistowskich i klasistowskich praktyk

Drone Warfare: Killing by Remote Control
Drone Warfare is the first comprehensive analysis of one of the fastest- growing - and most secretive - fronts in global war: the rise of robot warfare. In 2000, the Pentagon had fewer than fifty aerial drones; ten years later, it had nearly 7,500. Drones are already a $5 billion business in the US alone; the US Air Force now trains more drone than bomber and fighter pilots combined. Medea Benjamin provides the first extensive analysis of who is …

What is Socialist Feminism
At some level, perhaps not too well articulated, socialist feminism has been around for a long time. You are a woman in a capitalist society. You get pissed off: about the job, the bills, your husband (or ex), about the kids' school, the housework, being pretty, not being pretty, being looked at, not being look at (and either way, not listened to), etc. If you think about all these things and how they fit together and what has to be changed, and …

Global Woman: Nannies, Maids, and Sex Workers in the New Economy
In a remarkable pairing, two renowned social critics offer a groundbreaking anthology that examines the unexplored consequences of globalization on the lives of women worldwide. Women are moving around the globe as never before. But for every female executive racking up frequent flier miles, there are multitudes of women whose journeys go unnoticed. Each year, millions leave Mexico, Sri Lanka, the Philippines, and other third world countries to w…

Blood rites: Origins and History of the Passions of War
In Blood Rites, renowned social critic Barbara Ehrenreich confronts a subject that has challenged thinkers from Homer to Freud: What draws our species to war and even makes us see it as a kind of sacred undertaking? Ehrenreich takes us on an original journey from the grasslands of prehistoric Africa to the trenches of Verdun, from the spectacular human sacrifices of precolonial Central America to the carnage and holocaust of twentieth-century "to…

Defeating the Era: A Right-Wing Mobilization of Women
In an irony that feminists and their liberal supporters have yet to fully grasp, the opponents of the Equal Rights Amendment celebrated its defeat as a "great victory for women' and as a "great achievement by women." The ERA had been a major--perhaps the major--goal of the American feminist movement for ten years. It would have rendered unconstitutional dozens of arcane state laws which limit women's property rights during and after marriage. It …

Witches, Midwives, and Nurses
Women have always been healers. They were the unlicensed doctors and anatomists of Western history. They were abortionists, nurses, and counsellors. They were pharmacists, cultivating healing herbs and exchanging the secrets of their uses. They were midwives, travelling from home to home and village to village. For centuries women were doctors without degrees, barred from books and lectures, learning from each other, and passing on experience fro…

Work and Consciousness
There are some books—a very few-that explain so much that they are most likely to be criticized for not explaining everything. Labor and Monopoly Capital falls in this category; it can be faulted mainly for what it does not do, for failing to answer the questions it never raised in the first place. The most frustrating "omission" of this sort is the one which Paul Sweezy acknowledges in the book's foreword: the failure to analyze "the subjective …
Hospital Workers: "A Case Study in the "New Working Class
The kind of work most people do has been changing rapidly in the United States and other capitalist countries. Only a few decades ago, most working people performed unskilled or semi-skilled industrial labor, and "the working class" was predominantly the traditional blue-collar proletariat. Today, service workers, white-collar workers, highly educated technical and professional workers—the so-called "new working class"—together make up a majority…

Three Reports on the Guatemalan Guerrillas: A Favorable View of FAR; FAR and MR-13 Compared; Conversations with the Guatemalan Delegates in Cuba
In the past two years, beginning with Adolfo Gilly's articles in the May and June, 1965 issues, Monthly Review has devoted considerable space to the guerrilla movement in Guatemala. From time to time readers who have had an unusual opportunity to observe or learn about conditions in Guatemala pass along these impressions or information to us. We publish below three such reports. The first is by John and Barbara Ehrenreich, who are graduate studen…
From Resistance to Revolution
For at least five years young people in this country have struggled against "the system" That "system"—first no more than the links between red-neck cops and corrupt courts—has grown in our eyes to include the universities and firms we work for, what we see in the streets, how we have been trained to see ourselves. The cost of the struggle has already been great. We have seen friends beaten, jailed, exiled, and even killed. We who continue the st…
The European Student Movements
We spent most of June traveling around Europe talking to students. We went because Columbia and France convinced us that something was happening and because we were sick of our own peaceful graduate school. Mostly, we wanted to try to find out why what happened, happened now. (If you know how these things work, maybe you can get them to happen more often. )This article can also be found at the Monthly Review website, where most recent articles ar…

Democracy in China
It was said during the Cultural Revolution that "the 700 million Chinese are all critics." Five years later, the claim still holds. All China is criticizing Lin Piao and Confucius. Workers spend at least six hours a week meeting with fellow-workers to criticize Lin Piao and Confucius. Families—children through grandparents—hold family meetings to criticize Lin Piao and Confucius. Character posters criticizing Lin Piao and Confucius decorate facto…
