Summary: | Suzanne Blaise’s text – printed as a pamphlet in July 1975 – circulated among militants of both sexes but has never been part of a publication. While institutional authorities celebrated the International Women’s Year in 1975, Suzanne Blaise offers an inventory of feminism, as a theory of liberation and a political practice. She reconsiders the fundamental principles of Marxist theory. She develops a sharp perspective, both partisan and critical, when scrutinizing the main ideological, economical and historical spots of bourgeois resistance to change, namely, family and education. In this pamphlet, she commits herself to prove that “women’s liberation cannot be enacted by a Revolution” because “it is a Revolution as such”.
