Abstract
La forma en que se definen los cuidados varía de unos estudios a otros, lo que, en consecuencia, tiene sus jmplicaciones tanto en la investigación como en las políticas que derivan de los diferentes enfoques. En el articulo se propone una reflexión a partir del prolifero e inacabado debate sobre el 'care' que está desarrollándose en los últimos años en el entorno europeo. En primer lugar, se exploran las posibilidades que presenta la henamienta conceptual 'domesticación del trabajo' para analizar la complejidad que presentan los cuidados para su análisis, así como su especifLcidad al incorporar además de los aspectos materiales, los aspectos afectivos y los morales. En segundo lugar, se revisa la noción eare en tanto que permite incorporar en el análisis las tres dimensiones anteriormente señaladas (materialidad, moral y emociones). En tercer lugar, se revi sa la propuesta del modelo social eare como una forma de pensar sobre la responsabilidad moral y política de los cuidados, así como el valor social (reconocimiento) que éstos tienen. Frente a las políticas de conciliación, que han tenído, como efecto paradójico, la consagración de la doble jornada para las mujeres, el modelo social eare revisa la forma en que se organizará la provisión socjal del eare implicando a los diferentes actores sociales, entroncando así con las propuestas realizadas desde los años 80 sobre políticas de tiempos. Todo ello implica un replanteamiento de la responsabilidad moral y política de los cuidados. El debate eslá abierto.---------------------------------------------------------
The way in which care is defined, varies from one study to another, and in consequcnce, has ilS implications bofh in the research as in the policies that arise from the dilTerent approaches. On the arlicle, a refleclion is proposed slarting from Ibe proJific and unfinished debate about 'care' which has taken place in Ihe last years in Europe. First of aU, we explore [he possibilities ofthe theorerical tool «domesl;cation ofwork", whereas it constitutes a useful conceptual proposal to rethink (he different types ofwork, as well as Ibe social value Ibat Ihey have, when incorporating, besides the material aspects, the emotional and moral dimensions. Secondly, it is explored ¡he notion of care, while it allows to include in its analysis the three dimensions previously indicated (material, moral and emotions). Finally, Ihe model of social care is proposed as a fOrln of reflection about the moral responsibility of care and its social value (recognition). Confronting Ihe conciliation policies Ihat have produced, paradoxically, Ihe adoption of tlle double work tum for women, the social care model re-examines tbe way in which the social provision of care will be organised, involving lhe different social actors, thus connecling with Ihe proposals made since the 80's aboul time policies. AH this implies to relhink the moral and polilical responsibility of careo The debate is open.
