Indeed she is. Though that didn’t stop some communists criticizing her for her individualistic bourgeois philosophy.
Her work was also presaged or done better by communist authors who themselves were female as well but none of the communist books really struck it big.
Her’s did though.
Still, whatever one may think, she did support the May '68 protest movement, which many famous French philosophers never did…
The importance of her book is in the breakthrough it accomplished in deconstructing the millenia-old patriarchal/paternalistic logic which indiscriminately governed (Western) society. So it definitely merits its critical acclaim.
By the way, she supported the PRC since its establishment and visited China in the fifties. She wrote an investigative book about her visit entitled The Long March.
Yeah, but she was more of a “Maoist” type (before Gonzalo).
