Marriage and Love — Marriage as an Economic Institution (Deep Dive)

Описание: Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world — one book at a time.

This episode explores Marriage and Love by Emma Goldman as a systems-level examination of how marriage functions as a legal and economic institution shaping autonomy, dependency, and intimate life.

Rather than focusing on individual morality or personal solutions, this episode treats the essay as a structural analysis — revealing how incentives, labor constraints, legal frameworks, and cultural narratives interact to produce durable patterns of dependency. By mapping system design → incentives → outcomes, we examine why marriage persists not merely as a romantic ideal but as a stabilizing mechanism within broader economic arrangements.

This analysis prioritizes structure over intention, patterns over personalities, and systems over individual blame.
