The Politics of Die LINKE – A Politics of Time

What is the meaning of women’s politics for a modern left party which seeks to follow feminist, socialist and ecological goals? Die LINKE, when it was founded in 2007, asked me for advice to improve its competence in women’s issues, in order to address the low percentage of women among new recruits to the party (18%). I argued first of all against formulating a special women’s politics, since this would freeze the marginalization of women. The metamorphosis of general human needs – e.g. reproduction of the human species – into “women’s questions” was itself the problem, which could only be confronted with a different basic approach to politics.
