"Women: The Longest Revolution," by Juliet Mitchell

"Women: The Longest Revolution," by Juliet Mitchell

Women's Liberation

This essay offered a socialist analysis of "The Woman Question," drawing on Marxist feminism, psychoanalysis and literary criticism. As Christine Riddiough has noted, "Written just three years after Betty Friedan’s The Feminine Mystique, Mitchell’s work garnered nowhere near the notoriety of Friedan’s. It was, nonetheless, as important." This essay was originally published in the November/December 1966 issue of New Left Review.
