Description
Book SynopsisWhat does the development of a truly robust contemporary theory of domination require? Ashley J. Bohrer argues that it is only by considering all of the dimensions of race, gender, sexuality, and class within the structures of capitalism and imperialism that we can understand power relations as we find them nowadays. Bohrer explains how many of the purported incompatibilities between Marxism and intersectionality arise more from miscommunication rather than a fundamental conceptual antagonism. As the first monograph entirely devoted to this issue, "Marxism and Intersectionality" serves as a tool to activists and academics working against multiple systems of domination, exploitation, and oppression.
Trade Review"The contributions of Bohrer [offer] the starting point for productive debate: serious about the matter, solidary in dealing with it." Vincent Streichhahn, Femina Politica, 1 (2020), translated from German "Ashley Bohrers "Marxism and Intersectionality" is indispensable reading for socialists trying to understand how class, race and gender mesh." -- Peter Drucker, Rampant, 24.03.2020
