Feminist International

"Inspired by the internationally coordinated strike for the 8th of March, Gago has given us a book that well captures the revolutionary potential of contemporary feminism - its theories, its organizational forms, its struggles - all examined though the lenses of one of the most radical feminist movements on the American continent. It is a courageous and creative book, an ideal read for political formation; it opens new worlds and calls for action. -- Silvia Federici, author of Caliban and the Witch Gago offers in this book the most comprehensive transversal anaysis and the most compelling case for feminist praxis -- Judith Butler, author of The Force of Non-Violence Gago offers a feminist analysis of""strike"" as radical reimagination of traditionalfeminized roles. ... Reading Feminist International affirmed what Ialready hold to be true: women make the world go'round. ... In exploringthe political potential of contemporary radicalfeminist movements worldwide, [this book] showed me thatwomen of color will always provide a voice forpeople fighting to be seen, heard, and kept alive. -- Laura V. Eley * Women's Review of Books * Invigorating ... Gago shows how the ""feminist strike"" extends beyond conventional parameters-unions, the wage relation, male workers, male bosses-to draw in sex workers, indigenous people, the unemployed, workers in the informal economy, housewives. -- Amia Srinivasan * New Yorker *"
