Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. NEW PREFACEIn 1998, Sweden passed ground-breaking legislation that criminalized the purchase of sexual services which sought to curb demand and support women to exiting the sex industry. Grounded in the reality of the violence and abuse inherent in prostitution and reeling from the death of a friend to prostitution in Spain Kajsa Ekis Ekman exposes the many lies in the sex work scenario: Trade unions arent trade unions. Groups for prostituted women are simultaneously groups for brothel owners. And prostitution is always presented as a characteristic of the woman. The men who buy sex are left out.Drawing on Marxist and feminist analysis, Ekis Ekman argues that the Self is split from the body which makes it possible to sell your body without selling yourself. The body become sex. Sex becomes a service. The story of the sex worker says: the Split Self is not only possible, it is ideal.Turning to the practice of surrogate motherhood, Kajsa Ekis Ekman identifies the same components: that the woman is neither connected to her own body nor to the child she grows in her body and gives birth to. Surrogacy becomes an extended form of prostitution. In this capitalist creation story, the parent is the one who pays. The product sold is not sex but a baby. Ekis Ekman asks: why should this not be called baby trade?This brilliant expose is written with a razor sharp intellect and disarming wit and will make us look at prostitution and surrogacy and the parallels between them in a new way.

Paperback. Condition: New. A new definition of woman has taken hold in Western societies. Instead of a matter of biology and material reality, we are told it is an identity. Anyone who declares himself to be a woman is a woman; the body has henceforth become irrelevant. Gender, we are told, is a spectrum, and it resides in the mind. In countries such as Norway, Canada, Argentina and Australia, laws have been enacted that give anyone the right to change his or her legal sex, irrespective of whether the person has had a medical procedure. At the same time, the industry for gender reassignment surgery is growing at an unprecedented pace. Seven out of 10 teenagers who seek treatment are now girls.The new definition of sex has been hailed as progressive. But is it really? And is it new?In this groundbreaking book, Swedish feminist and Marxist author Kajsa Ekis Ekman traces the ideological roots of this new definition.

Rústica. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: Nuevo. 1. Este libro de la periodista, escritora y activista sueca Kajsa Ekis Ekman nos propone una reflexión crítica, profunda y rigurosa sobre dos industrias de la mercantilización de los cuerpos de las mujeres. Partiendo de premisas feministas y marxistas, Ekman examina tanto la prostitución sexual como la prostitución reproductiva o uterina (los llamados vientres de alquiler ) como dos instituciones que comercializan y explotan las mujeres. La apropiación y explotación de la sexualidad y la capacidad reproductiva del cuerpo de las mujeres ha sido, y es, uno de los fundamentos de las sociedades patriarcales pero también un frente de lucha histórico del movimiento feminista. El libro presenta un análisis de los argumentos harto semejantes que, bajo un aparente progresismo, sirven para legitimar esta explotación. Estas industrias, nos dice Ekman, son el producto de la intersección del capitalismo (donde los ricos compran a los pobres) y del patriarcado (donde los hombres compran a las mujeres, y las mujeres complacen a hombres), sin olvidar la presencia del racismo y de las relaciones neocoloniales Norte-Sur. Frente a los discursos que presentan estos sistemas como innovadores e inocuos, Ekman nos muestra el daño real que estas estructuras causan a las mujeres implicadas: tanto la prostitución como la maternidad subrogada no son actos anodinos sin consecuencias para la vida y la salud de las mujeres. La autora documenta diversas estrategias de defensa y supervivencia en ambos sistemas, entre las cuáles destaca la disociación, el hecho de tratar de desconectarse , y el fenómeno de la reificación (cosificación), definido por el teórico marxista Georg Lukács.
