About this book

In an era marked by rapid industrialization and social upheaval, August Bebel's "Woman under Socialism" emerges as a pivotal critique of women's roles within capitalist societies. This groundbreaking work delves into the systemic oppression women face, advocating for their liberation as essential to achieving broader social justice. Bebel articulates the concept of “unalienable rights” for women, emphasizing their integral place in the workforce and society. He also challenges the traditional family structure, proposing that true equality can only be realized through collective societal change. Ideal for students, civic activists, and historians, this document invites readers to explore the intersection of gender and socialism, making it a vital resource for understanding the roots of feminist thought.
