Workshop “Care Work, Socialization and Planned Economies”

(The description has been translated from German):

While care work often receives little attention in economic contexts, this has slowly changed as a result of feminist economic criticism. However, it is still not a self-evident part of economic debates. Nevertheless, current demands for socialization often regard care work as an important component of these demands. In the more recent planned economy debates, however, care work plays a subordinate role at best. At the same time, the more recent work on “family abolitinism” provides a further starting point for discussing the role of care work for alternatives to capitalistically organized economies. In the workshop, we want to relate these different strands to each other and find political starting points for a transformation of care work, economy and society.

With Mirjam Müller, Heiner Koch, Christoph Sorg, Barbara Fried und Livia von Samson
