Description
Valerie Solanas' SCUM Manifesto is a provocative and influential work of radical feminist theory. First published in 1968, the book's uncompromising vision of a society without men has been both widely condemned and remarkably prescient. Solanas' own life story, marked by violence and tragedy, has become inextricably linked with the text, yet it is the work itself that remains a powerful and thought-provoking analysis of the social and economic systems that govern our lives. In this edition, philosopher Avital Ronell provides a new introduction that reconsiders the significance and relevance of SCUM Manifesto, a text that continues to challenge and provoke readers today. With its unflinching critique of patriarchy and its vision of a future without the constraints of the male-dominated system, SCUM Manifesto remains a landmark work of feminist theory and a testament to the enduring power of radical ideas.
