Sažetak
The paper aims to contribute to the significance of Marx’s understanding of the problem of social reproduction, mainly its Marxist-Feminist interpretations. In this essay we will first and foremost outline the following: (1) Marx's analysis of the process of capital reproduction, after which follows (2) an outline of fundamental points of departure for social reproduction theory. The latter will be elaborated using three different historical strands of social reproduction theory—socialist feminism connected with the Second International, ‘autonomist feminism’ of the 1970s, and current SRT—and its two opposing theoretical traditions: ‘dual-systems’ and ‘unitary theory’. Unitary theory tradition of SRT is elucidated here as an exceptionally useful model for analysing social reality, enabling us, just as Marx assumed, to avoid reductionist, descriptive patterns for understanding society and to construct a valid analytical mechanism with the potential to explain ‘unitary’ interconnectedness of processes of oppression and exploitation.
