Marxism And The Oppression Of Women: Toward A Unitary Theory
Decades after initial publication, Vogel's book remains an essential contribution to the development of a materialist theory of gender oppression.
Lise Vogel revisits classical Marxian texts, tracking analyses of the woman question in socialist theory and drawing on central theoretical categories of Marx's Capital to open up an original theorisation of gender and the social production and reproduction of material life.
Includes Vogel's article, Domestic Labor Revisited which extends and clarifies her main theoretical innovations.

Marxism and the Oppression of Women: Toward a Unitary Theory by Lise Vogel is lauded for its analytical approach, combining Marxist theory with feminist insights to explore the intersection of capitalism and women's oppression. Critics appreciate its attempt to create a cohesive theory that bridges gaps between Marxist and feminist perspectives, though some suggest the material can be dense and complex. The book is often recommended for readers interested in these theoretical frameworks and is deemed an essential read for those exploring the roots and solutions to systemic gender inequality through a Marxist lens.
