Pornocracy, or Women in Modern Times (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798311068581)

"[It] is Proudhon who breaks the alliance between feminism and socialism".
- Simone de Beauvoir, The Second Sex

In this work, Proudhon defends his controversial and idiosyncratic views on the role of women in society. Despite being famous for his defenses of individual liberty and critiques of the state and his role as one of the forerunners of anarchist and socialist thought, Proudhon was by no means a feminist.

This book, which builds on his shorter statement on women's rights in Justice, outlines how Proudhon thinks women should behave in relation to society and why.

Seldom translated, Pornocracy is an essential work for understanding the history of anarchism, socialism, and feminism and its critics.
