cover iamgeRadical Homemakers: Reclaiming Domesticity from a Consumer Culture

By Shannon Hayes

It seems like we understand the home as purposeful only through endless consumption. Hayes reminds us that the home can instead be a site of meaningful social production, with its own economy based on self-sufficiency and community. Through profiling different women and men who have opted out of consumer cultures and committed themselves to homemaking, Hayes offers an interesting, compelling, and inspiring guide to undermining a problematic system and returning home.
