Synopsis

The CareNotes Collective’s recent publication For Health Autonomy emerged in the new year, and new decade, just as the world began reeling from a profoundly destabilizing and deadly global health pandemic. Present and possible future outlooks now depend largely on how we have managed so far to mitigate the effects of the most fateful preexisting condition of all: capitalism. Our ability to do more than hope to survive—to live beyond the negotiated terms of survival—is a project for health autonomy. The politics of collective self-determination in the realm of health, and against premature death, has long been at the center of revolutionary abolitionist movements. You can explore the backdrop of the revolutionary politics that animate the CareNotes project by listening to their podcast here.

A propos du livre

À propos des auteurs

CareNotes is a collective of care workers who are organizing for health autonomy committed to sharing experiences and analysis from autonomous care practices resisting the violence of the state and capitalist life. The editorial collective functions anonymously, without any grant funding, or any affiliation with academic/NGOs/foundations.

Silvia Federici is a feminist writer, teacher, and militant. In 1972, she was cofounder of the International Feminist Collective, which launched the Wages for Housework campaign internationally. Her decades of research and political organizing accompanies a long list of publications on philosophy and feminist theory, women's history, education, culture, international politics, and more recently the worldwide struggle against capitalist globalization and for a feminist reconstruction of the commons. Her steadfast commitment to these issues resounds in her focus on autonomy in what she calls self-reproducing movements as a powerful challenge to capitalism through the construction of new social relations.
