The Alienation of Women in the Context of Social Reproduction

As a wave of women’s liberation movements has swept across the world over the past century, Marxist feminism has examined the theories and concepts found in classic Marxist literature, providing an in-depth critique of the importance and alienation of women in the context of social reproduction. An analysis of the different positions of women in social reproduction identifies the mechanisms underlying the alienation of women’s ‘motherhood’ into ‘motherhood’ in the context of social reproduction. The Marxist feminist examination of this alienation is based on an emphasis on women’s biological differences, followed by a division between the public and private spheres, examining the oppression of women in the domestic sphere in terms of both intergenerational alternation and domestic work and the public sphere in terms of the exploitation of women’s participation in social production
