Love of Worker Bees by Kollontai

What this episode covers

Show Notes: This week, Matt and Cameron dive into Love of the Worker Bees by Alexandra Kollontai, a major figure of early Soviet Union Bolshevik politics. Though she would later fall out of favor due to her outspoken opposition to the changing Bolshevik party, Kollontai remained a USSR official, Marxist feminist theorist, and author until her death. I know, I know, more Soviet political theory—some day you will find this as interesting as we do. It’s just a matter of time. Major themes: Adultery, *Our* kid, New Economic Policy = Capitalism? 33:40 - This is what they tell Vasilisa, to be clear, and is not a reflection of my personal views.
