1. Alexandra Kollontai On Women's Liberation
A collection of essays and speeches arguing that true emancipation requires transforming both economic structures and social relations, it examines how class oppression and gender oppression intersect, calls for collective solutions such as socialized domestic labor and childcare, and envisions new forms of love, family, and solidarity emerging from a socialist society. Grounded in revolutionary praxis, it critiques bourgeois feminism’s limits, champions working women’s organization, and outlines concrete policies and cultural shifts needed to achieve equality in everyday life.
