During the 1980s, capitalism triumphantly secured its global reach,
anti-communist ideologies hammered home socialism's inherent
failure, the New Left increasingly moved into the professional
middle class--and many of feminism's earlier priorities were
marginalized. "Identity politics," often formulated in terms of
social reconstructionism or multiculturalism, has increasingly
suppressed materialist feminism's systematic perspective, replacing
it with discourse analysis or cultural politics. Materialist
Feminism: A Reader argues against the retreat to multiculturalism
for keeping invisible the material links among the explosion of
meaning-making practices in highly industrialized social sectors,
the exploitation of women's labor, and the appropriation of women's
bodies that continues to undergird the scramble for profits and
state power in multinational capitalism.
