English Women and Revolution Pages


Women and Revolution was the journal of the Women's Commission of the Spartacist League/U.S. from 1972 through 1996. Now incorporated into Spartacist, Women and Revolution reflects our commitment to the fight for women's liberation through socialist revolution. National press of ICL sections also publish articles under the Women and Revolution masthead. Additionally, we have included in this list other selected articles that deal centrally with aspects of the woman question.
