This book collects more than thirty years of reflections and research on the nature of domestic work, social reproduction and the struggles of women in this field: to escape it, to improve its conditions or to rebuild it in a way that represents an alternative to capitalist relations. These are articles that mix politics, history and feminist theory. It is also a reflection of my political trajectory within the feminist movement and the anti-globalization movement, of the gradual change that I have experienced in my position regarding domestic work, going from "rejection" to its "assessment", which I now recognize as part of a collective experience.

Reproductive work is, without a doubt, the only work that calls into question what we give to capital and "what we give ourselves." But of course it is work in which the contradictions inherent in "alienated work" manifest themselves most explosively, which is why it is the zero point of revolutionary practice, even if it is not the only "zero point". Since there is nothing as stifling for life as seeing the activities and relationships that satisfy our desires transformed into work. Similarly, it is through these daily activities through which we produce our existence, that we can develop our capacity to cooperate, not only resist dehumanization but learn to rebuild the world as a place of upbringing, creativity and care.
