In this interview, Nancy Fraser discusses the relationship between labor and gender, race, and class. She argues that capitalism relies not only on exploitative labor but also on expropriated and domesticated labor. Fraser critiques the division between productive and reproductive labor, acknowledging its capitalist origins but also advocating for its reimagining in a post-capitalist society. The text explores the importance of labor movements, drawing inspiration from W.E.B. Dubois' work on the labor movements of the 19th-century American Civil War. It suggests that these movements, along with feminism, should recognize each other as fellow labor movements and work together to overcome internal divisions. The text also addresses the role of the family in perpetuating gender violence and advocates for feminism to be seen as a labor movement advocating for the rights of women in domestic settings. It acknowledges the conflict of interest between women and men in oppressive systems but argues that the principal beneficiary is capital, and that both men and women have something to gain from transforming the system. The text concludes by discussing the need for cooperation and integration among different emancipatory movements, proposing the idea of a counter hegemonic bloc to challenge political divisions. It also touches on the importance of counter power, the role of political parties and trade unions, and the potential for international collaboration. The concept of socialism is discussed, emphasizing the need for democratic control over the social surplus and the expansion of the scope of democracy. [Extracted from the article] |
