Klappentext zu „Raya Dunayevskaya's Intersectional Marxism “
Raya Dunayevskaya is one of the twentieth century's great but underappreciated Marxist and feminist thinkers. Her unique philosophy and practice of Marxist-Humanism-as well as her grasp of Hegelian dialectics and the deep humanism that informs Marx's thought-has much to teach us today. From her account of state capitalism (part of her socio-economic critique of Stalinism, fascism, and the welfare state), to her writings on Rosa Luxemburg, Black and women's liberation, and labor, we are offered indispensable resources for navigating the perils of sexism, racism, capitalism, and authoritarianism. This collection of essays, from a diverse group of writers, brings to life Dunayevskaya's important contributions. Revisiting her rich legacy, the contributors to this volume engage with her resolute Marxist-Humanist focus and her penetrating dialectics of liberation that is connected to Black, labor, and women's liberation and to struggles over alienation and exploitation the world over. Dunayevskaya's Marxist-Humanism is recovered for the twenty-first century and turned, as it was with Dunayevskaya herself, to face the multiple alienations and de-humanizations of social life.

Pressezitat
"Raya Dunayevskaya's Intersectional Marxism is particularly helpful to readers unacquainted with Marxism and Freedom and the arguments and political positions that she developed and found validation for in Marx." (Sean Sheehan, Marx and Philosophy, marxandphilosophy.org.uk, May 20, 2021)"[This] book ... make important contributions to pushing Marxist debates beyond a dichotomizing critique of intersectionality theory. And moving forward, an intersectional historical materialism can foster greater appreciation of the mutually constitutive dynamics between capitalism's variegated political economic landscapes and heterogenoussocial terrains characterized by differential subordination. Such a dialectical approach is particularly relevant in the present, given the proliferation of diverse 'non-standard' labour arrangements, alongside reactionary movements globally, which seek to deepen existing cleavages of differential subordination." (Stephen Campbell, Dialectical Anthropology, April 30, 2021)
