{"product_id":"selected-writings-of-alexandra-kollontai-9780393009743","title":"Selected Writings of Alexandra Kollontai","description":"Alexandra Kollontai--the only woman member of the Bolshevik central committee and the USSR's first Minister of Social Welfare--is known today as a historic contributor to the international women's movement, and as one of the first Bolshevik leaders to oppose the growth of the bureaucracy in the young socialist state. Her \u003cem\u003eSelected Writings\u003c\/em\u003e discuss the social democratic movement before the First World War, the history of the Russian women's movement, and the debate between \"feminist\" and \"socialist\" women; the effects of the war on European socialism; the revolutions; the part played by women in the revolutionary events; the early manifestations of bureaucracy and Kollontai's role as spokeswoman for the \"workers' opposition\"; and morality, sexual politics, the family, and prostitution. It also includes writings from her later life as a Soviet official. Each section is introduced by a commentary in which Alix Holt explains the background and critically sets Kollontai's unique lifework in its historical and biographical contexts, demonstrating both its necessary limitations and its extraordinary range.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-15216170\"\u003eKollanta\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-15216171\"\u003eA.
