The Power of Women and the Subversion of the Community
A superb introduction to the prospect of opening our idea of the working class to include non-waged workers, specifically women who work in the home. A simple idea with profound revolutionary consequences. If the workers of the world are not all in the factory, and are not all men, where does that leave us?
Women and the Subversion of the Community
In recent years there has been both a renewed interest in theories of social reproduction and an explosion of womens struggles and strikes across the world. This collection offers both historical and contemporary Marxist feminist analysis of how the reproduction of labor and life functions under capitalism, using Dalla Costas insights into the vibrant and combative womens movement that emerged in Italy and across the world in the early 1970s. Since the first publication of Women and the Subversion of the Community in 1972, Dalla Costa has been a central figure in the development of autonomist thought. Her detailed research and provocative thinking deepens our understanding of the role of womens struggles for autonomy and control over their bodies and labor.

Translated from the Italian.

The Work of Love
The translation into English of this text first published in Italian in 1978 and which has already appeared in 1991 in Japanese (A no rodou, Tokyo, Impact Shuppankai), comes not by chance, at a political moment when the debate over housework that is work of production and reproduction of labor power, the debate about violence have re-emerged with particular vigor at the international level.This feminist classic poses, at the centre of its analysis, the relationship which exists between physical (and specifically sexual) violence against women, and the role of women in performing housework, to which they remain primarily assigned in the capitalist division of labour (and which seeks to define...
