Summary/Abstract: This article is a review essay of Stefania Barca’s book Forces of Reproduction: Notes for a Counter-Hegemonic Anthropocene. The author conducts a critical recon-struction of the book’s key theses and situates them in the context of debates taking place within the framework of ecosocialist theory and Marxist feminism. A parti-cular emphasis is put on rethinking the relationship between emancipatory proces-ses and the development of productive forces in Marxist theory and Marxism, and on framing the class struggle from the perspective of social reproduction theory
