Mammies, Matriarchs, and Other Controlling Images
This chapter from Collins’ seminal book *Black Feminist Thought* analyzes the controlling images of Black womanhood in U.S. culture—such as the mammy, matriarch, welfare queen, and jezebel—and how these stereotypes function to justify intersecting systems of race, gender, and class oppression. Collins argues that these images are ideological tools used to regulate Black women’s labor, sexuality, and social roles.
A Cyborg Manifesto: Science, Technology, and Socialist-Feminism in the Late Twentieth Century
This influential essay reimagines feminist theory through the metaphor of the cyborg—a hybrid of machine and organism. Haraway critiques traditional boundaries between human and non-human, nature and culture, and proposes a post-gender, post-essentialist feminist politics rooted in affinity, irony, and technological embodiment.
The Feminist Standpoint: Developing the Ground for a Specifically Feminist Historical Materialism
This foundational chapter develops the concept of the feminist standpoint by integrating Marxist theory with feminist epistemology. Hartsock argues that women's experiences—particularly in domestic labor and social reproduction—offer a privileged epistemic position from which to critique dominant knowledge systems and capitalist structures.
The Traffic in Women: Notes on the 'Political Economy' of Sex
This paper proposes the groundbreaking concept of the 'sex/gender system' to analyze the social origins of women's oppression through a critical synthesis of Marxism, structural anthropology, and psychoanalytic theory.
Wages Against Housework
This classic Marxist feminist text reveals the truth of housework as central to capitalist relations of production. Federici argues that by naturalizing housework as women's 'labor of love,' capitalism obtains massive amounts of unpaid labor. Demanding wages for housework is not about institutionalizing this labor but about politicizing it, exposing capitalism's exploitation of women's labor.
