Federici carefully examines feminist questions and in the process has provided an expansive redefinition of work, class, and class-gender relations. Seeking to delineate the specific character of capitalist 'patriarchalism', this original approach also highlights Marx's and the Marxist tradition's problematic view of industrial production and the State in the struggle for human liberation.
