Sophie Lewis: Abolishing the Family for Universal Care
Manage episode 394127704 series 3547798
Sophie Lewis explains how the family shapes care in capitalist societies and what health might look like in a society that is no longer structured around the institution of the family. Drawing on the works of Marx, Alexandra Kollontai, Charles Fourier and the gay liberationists, she presents us with a radically different approach to healing and care.
Sophie is a freelance writer living in Philadelphia and the author of Full Surrogacy Now and Abolish the Family, both published by Verso Books. Her essays have appeared in the New York Times, Harper’s, Boston Review, n+1, the London Review of Books and Salvage.
