Feminist Critique of Social Security and Socialist Welfare Programmes

Abstract

Critics of social security and other state-run programs often point out that women are often trained to depend on men and the state for all of their needs. They object to these initiatives for a number of reasons, including these. The reason for feminists' extreme suspicion towards these activities stems from this incident. Any time a socialist welfare program is being designed, it is important to keep two things in mind: first, in the framework of a capitalist society. Among these worries are the following ones: You are in a position to modify a number of different parts of the circumstance. It is challenging to achieve innovations that would upend the capital-labor relationship because of the structure of capitalism. This is due to the impossibility of achieving such a disruption. Any technique cannot implement such a breakthrough. This is because the technology available today makes it impossible to accomplish such breakthroughs. When seen from this perspective, the feminist "disaggregation" campaign has a great deal of potential to further the cause. When it comes to matters of social policy, males must understand that any socialist strategy must revolve around the demands of women. Feminist movements require work to be done both inside the movement and in cooperation with several groups that are already in place in order to be effective. For the movement to be successful, something is required.
