Beyond The Periphery Of The Skin by Silvia Federici
This work examines the body as a central terrain of capitalist power and struggle, arguing that processes of commodification, dispossession, and racialized gender hierarchies shape everyday life and reproductive labor. It traces how neoliberal policies, migration, and the global division of care work deepen inequalities and subject bodies—especially women’s and racialized peoples’—to new forms of violence and control. Interweaving historical analysis with contemporary cases, it reframes social reproduction as both exploited labor and a site of collective resistance, calling for political strategies that reclaim bodily autonomy, communal care, and alternative forms of social life outside capitalist commodification.
