Feminist, antiracist, trans, ecological movements: all look at the body as a ground of confrontation with the state and a vehicle for transformative social practices. Concurrently, the body has become a signifier for the reproduction crisis generated by the neoliberal turn in capitalist development and for the international surge in institutional repression and public violence. In Beyond the Periphery of the Skin, lifelong activist and bestselling author Silvia Federici examines these complex processes, placing them in the context of the history of the capitalist transformation of the body into a work-machine, expanding on one of the main subjects of her first book, Caliban and the Witch. In this process she confronts some of the most important questions for contemporary radical political projects. What does "the body" mean, today, as a category of social/political action? What are the processes, institutional or anti-systemic, by which it is constituted? How do we dismantle the tools by which our bodies have been "enclosed" and collectively reclaim our capacity to govern them?"--Provided by publisher. 505 0 $a Machine generated contents note: PART ONE -- One.Lecture One The Body, Capitalism, and the Reproduction of Labor Power -- Two.Lecture Two "Body Politics" in the Feminist Revolt -- Three.Lecture Three The Body in Today's Reproductive Crisis -- PART TWO -- Four.On the Body, Gender, and Performance -- Five.Remaking Our Bodies, Remaking the World? -- Six.Surrogate Motherhood: A Gift of Life or Maternity Denied? -- Seven.With Philosophy, Psychology, and Terror: Transforming Bodies into Labor Power -- Eight.Origins and Development of Sexual Work in the United States and Britain -- Nine.Mormons in Space Revisited with George Caffentzis -- PART FOUR -- Ten.In Praise of the Dancing Body. 650 0 $a Feminism. 650 0 $a Women $x Social conditions. 650 7 $a Feminism. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00922671 650 7 $a Women $x Social conditions. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01176947 830 0 $a Kairos (PM Press (Firm)) 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317031053.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9867E206403511EB87AA299C42ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
