48 - A.K. 47 - The Loves of Three Generations Discussion II

In this episode, Kristen Ghodsee discusses the fraught historical relationship between left movements and women's emancipation. As the case of Kollontai shows us, revolutionary men do not always remain committed to women's issues after the revolution has been accomplished. Mentioned in this essay is this article about August Bebel from Jacobin Magazine.Send us Fan MailThanks so much for listening. This podcast has no Patreon-type account and receives no funding.
