Abstract

buy this issue
 This special issue of Monthly Review honors the fiftieth anniversary this month of Margaret Benston's landmark "The Political Economy of Women's Liberation." The essay sparked a revolution in Marxian thought, the full implications of which are only now being perceived in contemporary social reproduction theory. We have reprinted Benson’s pieces together with contributions by Silvia Federici, Martha E. Gimenez, Selma James (interviewed by Ron Augustin), Leith Mullings, Marge Piercy, and Lise Vogel, all of whom have played leading roles since the 1970s in the development of feminist historical materialism.
