Pr�sentation de l'�diteur :

IN 1972 SELMA JAMES SET OUT A NEW POLITICAL PERSPECTIVE Her starting point was the millions of unwaged women who, working in the home and on the land, were not seen as workers and whose struggles were viewed as outside of capitalism. For James, the class struggle presents itself as the conflict between the reproduction and survival of the human race, and the dictatorship of the market with its exploitation, wars, and ecological devastation. She sums up her strategy for change as Invest in Caring Not Killing. This selection, spanning six decades, traces the development of this perspective in the course of building an international campaigning network. It incorporates Jean Rhys and Virginia Woolf, sex worker activism, Marx and feminism, breastfeeding, unions and workers, the UN Decade for Women, anti-Zionism, jailhouse lawyers, refuseniks, Haiti's Black Jacobins, Tanzania's ujamaa, the Venezuelan revolution, SlutWalk, and a reappraisal of CLR James. The writing is lucid and without jargon. The ideas, never abstract, spring from trying to make sense of successes and setbacks, and the need to find a way forward.

Revue de presse :

Intellectually ambitious attempt to synthesize Marxism, feminism, and post-colonialism, not with the usual sellotaped hyphenations. --London Review of Books, Jenny Turner

It's time to acknowledge James's path-breaking analysis: from 1972 she re-interpreted the capitalist economy to show that it rests on the usually invisible unwaged caring work of women. --Dr Peggy Antrobus, feminist

The final essay Striving for Clarity and Influence is a fierce defence of CLR James's political legacy against those who would see his achievements in purely literary terms. Fascinating. --The Guardian, Becky Gardiner

Description du livre Paperback. Etat : New. In 1972 Selma James set out a new political perspective. Her starting point was the millions of unwaged women who, working in the home and on the land, were not seen as ?workers? and their struggles viewed as outside of the class struggle. Based on her political training in the Johnson-Forest Tendency, founded by her late husband C.L.R. James, on movement experience South and North, and on a respectful study of Marx, she redefined the working class to include sectors previously dismissed as ?marginal.? For James, the class struggle presents itself as the conflict between the reproduction and survival of the human race, and the domination of the market with its exploitation, wars, and ecological devastation. She sums up her strategy for change as ?Invest in Caring not Killing.? This selection, spanning six decades, traces the development of this perspective in the course of building an international campaigning network. It includes the classic The Power of Women and the Subversion of the Community which launched the ?domestic labor debate,? the exciting Hookers in the House of the Lord which describes a church occupation by sex workers, an incisive review of the C.L.R. James masterpiece The Black Jacobins, a reappraisal of the novels of Jean Rhys and of the leadership of Julius Nyerere, the groundbreakingMarx and Feminism, and ?What the Marxists Never Told Us About Marx,? published here for the first time. The writing is lucid and without jargon. The ideas, never abstract, spring from the experience of organising, from trying to make sense of the successes and the setbacks, and from the need to find a way forward.
