Anti-Capitalist Feminisms (Co-sponsored by Sociology of Sex and Gender Section)

Sat, August 8, 10:00 to 11:30am, TBA

Session Submission Type: Paper Session (90 minute)

Description

Sexuality and gender are critical points through which the capitalist system has ordered and disciplined populations to ensure the accumulation and reproduction of capital. In response, feminist scholarship and activism have long been at the forefront of contesting, deconstructing, and imagining alternatives to the capitalist status quo. In the theme of this year's ASA meeting, "Disrupting the Status Quo," the Marxist Sociology and Sex and Gender Sections are co-sponsoring this session to interrogate anti-capitalist feminisms at a moment when discourses around normative sexualities and gender relations are central to the consolidation of economic and political power.
