Kaliban I Czarownica. Kobiety, Ciało I Akumulacja Pierwotna by Silvia Federici
Kobiety, Ciało I Akumulacja Pierwotna
This insightful work delves into the historical intersections of capitalism, patriarchy, and the subjugation of women, particularly during the transition from feudalism to capitalism in Europe. It explores how the witch hunts of the early modern period were not merely a religious or superstitious phenomenon but a calculated strategy to control women's bodies and labor. By examining the socio-economic transformations of the time, the book argues that the persecution of women was instrumental in the establishment of capitalist economies, highlighting the enduring legacy of these practices in contemporary gender and economic inequalities.
