Sažetak
Rosa Luxemburg did not write many texts on the so-called ‘woman question’. However, that does not mean that her work should be omitted from a feminist-revolutionary history. On the contrary, it would be highly inaccurate to claim that her works and, specifically, her critique of political economy lack numerous reference-points for the development of progressive feminist policy and female emancipation, throughout history and today. With Luxemburg’s The Accumulation of Capital in mind and her strong emphasis on the vibrant dynamics between capitalist and non-capitalist space, let us try to take Luxemburg’s theory a step further. Is it possible to speak of a ‘Luxemburgian feminism’? Is it possible to establish a connection between the Luxemburgian ‘dialectics of spatiality’ and social- reproduction theory? Can the framework of the Luxemburgian critique of political economy be used for the feminist analysis of women’s reproductive work and its economic role in the reproduction of accumulation? In this presentation the above questions shall be analysed in more detail through a) a presentation of Luxemburg’s critique of bourgeois feminism and, subsequently, b) an established connection between crucial elements of Luxemburg’s The Accumulation of Capital and social reproduction theory.
