Ojalá poder darle mas estrellas a este libro porque me encantó, creo que jamás he aprendido tanto con un libro como lo hice con este.
Nunca se me habria pasado por la cabeza que la caza de brujas estuviera tan cercamente relacionada con el surgimiento del capitalismo y de la expropiación del cuerpo de las ""mujeres""....me parece un libro muy importante para entender todos los acontecimientos actuales relacionados con el control reproductivo enfin este libro es una obra de arte

An invigorating look at the direct link between the rise of capitalism, patriarchy, and the subsequent oppression of women as a mode of workforce production. Brilliantly intersectional in its viewpoint, perhaps the only missing links Federici has overlooked are the importance of the Silk Road in her theory and monogamy as a patriarchal reinforcement of primitive accumulation (the latter understandable as I think this theory may have come about after the publishing of this book). There are some absolutely fascinating gems within here, devastating revelations about the cyclical nature of gender fascism, and hope buried between the lines in the form of knowledge and memories our female ancestors practiced that if retained can help future generations in some way.

incisive and so well argued. i can understand why this is a must read for Marxists. but even beyond that, it’s incredibly interesting historically and remains relevant today
