University of Pennsylvania professor and author of seven books Kristen Ghodsee explains why the triumph of capitalism in the first and second world countries was not an option for most women. She masterfully debunks persistent myths that in a free market, women have more opportunities to achieve career heights and economic independence, inner balance and personal happiness. Using many examples, Kristen Ghodsee shows how, by discriminating against women, capitalism deprives them of everything - from physical pleasures to intellectual self-realization - and uses those who are already at the top of the economic pyramid in the interests of prosperity. Despite the collapse and ideological discrediting of socialism in the countries of Eastern Europe, Ghodsi is convinced that many elements of the socialist economy are capable of providing a woman with conditions for development and full-fledged work, a healthy distribution of forces between work and family, and ultimately harmonious and rich sexual relations. Quotes: “Capitalism is bad for women, and if we adopt some of the ideas of socialism, women will live better. Socialism entails economic independence, favorable working conditions, a harmonious distribution of power between work and family, and even better sex.” “Employers discriminate against women who do not have children because they can get them. Women are the last to be hired and the first to be fired in recessions. If they find work, they are paid less than men. Capitalism thrives on women's unpaid domestic work, as women's care and treatment work helps lower taxes. The lower the taxes, the higher the profits of those who are already at the top of the income ladder - that is, men. “Many of the citizens who had the opportunity to live under two economic systems today see that capitalism is worse than socialism, which they once happily abandoned.” “In countries of less equality, women understand that sexual relationships provide an opportunity for social mobility, a Cinderella dream. However, if women own their own money and live in societies where the state supports their independence, Prince Charming loses his appeal. Peculiarities: • A detailed and reasoned analysis of the benefits of socialism - a system that everyone criticizes - for a happy and peaceful life for a woman. • In a small volume - a storehouse of interesting facts about the lives of women in different countries, including in the USSR and the countries of the Eastern Bloc. • An impressive comparative analysis of how women live under socialism and the free market, backed up by numbers. Expert reviews: “The triumph of capitalism has been a disaster for most women. Kristen Ghodsee's book brilliantly reveals the reasons for their plight." Yanis Varoufakis, Professor of Economics at the University of Athens and Texas, author of numerous books “A killing verdict on the idea of empowering women through careers based on the principle of “Work hard and make it through.” Ghodsi convincingly substantiates the interpretation of feminism as a system of views, where the central place is given to the task of reorganizing the economy. This book is a reminder that modern socialism must focus as much on pleasure as it does on power and production. Kate Aronoff is an American journalist and regular contributor to In These Times, covering politics and climate change. “Cheerful, angry and topical - this book will make the reader completely rethink their views on their own work and life. Godsi wants to start a revolution. I'm already preparing the banner!" Daisy Buchanan, popular journalist, columnist, collaborates with The Guardian, Daily Mail, Esquire, Glamour, Look, Marie Claire, Stylist, The Pool and The Sunday Times About the author: Kristen Ghodsee received her PhD from UC Berkeley and is Professor of Russian and East European Studies at the University of Pennsylvania.
