Socialist feminism



A notion that argues "There is no socialism without the liberation of women. There is no liberation of women without socialism". Socialist feminism struggles to eliminate ownership systems. Marriage institutions that legalize male ownership of the husband's property and ownership of wives are abolished like Marx's idea that cools a classless society without gender differentiation. Socialist feminism emerged as a criticism of Marxist feminism. This flow says that patriarchy has arisen before capitalism and still will not change if capitalism collapses.
Capitalism's criticism must be accompanied by a critique of domination over women. Socialist feminism uses class and gender analysis to understand women's oppression. He is in agreement with Marxist feminism that capitalism is a source of women's oppression. However, this socialist feminist stream also agrees with radical feminism that considers patriarchy the source of oppression.
Capitalism and patriarchy are two mutually supporting forces. As exemplified by Nancy Fraser in the United States the nuclear family is headed by men and the economy is officially headed by the state because the role of citizens and workers is a masculine role, while the roles of consumers and caregivers are feminine roles. The agenda for the struggle to fight it is to abolish capitalism and the patriarchal system. In the Indonesian context, this analysis is useful for looking at the problems of poverty that are a burden on women.
