In this first-ever international history of the influential feminist movement Wages for Housework, Louise Toupin draws on extensive archival research and interviews with the movement's founders and activists from Italy, England, Germany, Switzerland, the United States, and Canada. Featuring previously unpublished conversations with Silvia Federici and Mariarosa Dalla Costa, the book highlights the power and originality of the movement, detailing its theoretical and organizational innovations around the unrecognized forms of labor performed largely by women. Wages for Housework is a major contribution to the history of feminist and anticapitalist movements and a provocative intervention into contemporary conversations about the changing nature of work and the gendered labor market.
