“…It also incorporated the issue of immigrant and undocumented women, which is very rare in the French union context. Overall, the motion was very close in its position to materialist feminism, which originated partly from the work of French feminists and highlights capitalism and patriarchy as central to understanding women's oppression (Delphy ).…”

This article investigates the under‐researched topic of women's representation in radical unions, drawing on an in‐depth case study of the French Solidaires, Unitaires et Démocratiques (SUD) movement. In addition to an overview of the institutional and organizational dynamics of unions’ ‘inequality regimes’, it offers a contextually grounded analysis of the barriers and enablers of women's participation in SUD unions. More specifically, this research reflects on the complex interrelationships between class and gender in class‐based militant trade unions that claim to be feminist but fail to support working‐class female workers’ participation.

“…This line of research maintained the Marxist focus on class and economic roles, but it also worked from the principle that patriarchy was a powerful ideology that oppressed women and relegated them to a lower class existence devoid of power and control (Delphy, 1980) (Deem, 1982;Chambers, 1986;Green et al, 1988;Wimbush and Talbot, 1988).…”

“…Thus, my intention differs from the aims of the theoretical framework called materialist feminism, which uses Marx's historical materialisms as a means to analyze specifically material social inequalities such as patriarchy (e.g., Delphy, 1980;Hennessy and Ingraham, 1997). Moreover, my intention is not to trace the genealogy of the term "new materialism" and to evaluate either if the feminist content of new materialism is in a process of being dismantled or if the positioning as new materialist scholar causes a specific feminist identity as political and ethical.…”

Rethinking Socialization Research through the Lens of New Materialism

In recent decades, socialization research appears to have suffered the loss of its former capacity to explain the processes of becoming a socialized subject in a social environment. In this article, I review socialization theories taking into account assumptions regarding human subjects and their social environments. I confront them with the idea of rethinking dualisms, ontologies, and agencies addressed by the field of new materialism. I propose a new materialist-inspired socialization theory that assumes that humans, knowledge, and material environments become inseparable parts of (gendered) socialization processes in a world of constant change. This approach contributes to socialization theory and methodology because it illustrates precisely how humans and non-humans coproduce socialization in situated material-discursive processes.
