- Die Angst aus den 1970ern vor einer „Überbevölkerung” oder dem dystopischen Narrativ einer „Bevölkerungsbombe” scheint heute vergessen zu sein. Bevölkerungsreduktion und Bevölkerungskontrolle sind in aktuellen Klima- und Entwicklungspolitiken zu Tabuwörtern deklariert worden – es geht vielmehr um reproduktive Rechte, Familienplanung und sexuelle Aufklärung. Gleichzeitig erstarken im Globalen Norden Initiativen und...

- Die marxistische Theorie stellt die Frage nach der revolutionären Überwindung kapitalistischer Klassenverhältnisse, die die Ausbeutung und Unterdrückung der Arbeiter*innenklassen produzieren. Feministische und postkoloniale Marxist*innen verweisen in diesem Zusammenhang auf die vergeschlechtlichte und rassifizierte Dimension des Kapitalismus, die transnationale Arbeiter*innenbewegungen verkomplizieren und vor die Aufgabe stellen, Kämpfe zu unbezahlter Care-Arbeit und...
