Socialist Womanwas produced by the International Marxist Group from 1969 to 1978. A recurrent theme is the practical challenge of connecting women’s struggles to workers’ organizations, which often showed little interest in issues outside the workplace. Women often had to build their own campaigns to address these issues immediately, but also they had to argue to bring these issues into workers’ movement as whole. While pushing for these organisations to take up women’s issues, they also had to continue to organise autonomously to ensure their needs don’t get overlooked.

In this podcast, we draw together the systematic argument from the pages of Socialist Woman that capitalism's oppression wasn’t accidental or a case of bad luck but materially beneficial to class society. Furthermore, that has consequences for action.

Shorter than our average podcast, this is an accessible guide to the worldview underpinning Socialist Woman.
