Liberty through struggle - Marxism vs. Queer Theory
Nov 25, 2020•28 min
Episode description
In this talk from the International Marxist University, Yola Kipcak - a leading activist of Der Funke, the Austrian section of the IMT - provides a Marxist analysis of Queer Theory. Visit podcast.marxist.com for the full recordings.
Marxism defends the unity of peoples across all gender and sexual lines in the fight against the oppressive capitalist system. But Queer Theory holds that our gender and sexual identities are a fiction produced by discourses and oppressive power in society: a learned performance.
What does this idea mean for the liberation struggle? Is Queer Theory compatible with Marxism? This discussion tackles these issues.
