Both tendencies are located in turn in the tension between the mechanisms of production and social reproduction. The article deals with the issue of care as a right and, therefore, as an issue of political scope. Starting from the observation that care falls disproportionately on women and families, it suggests the need for its equitable redistribution between family, state and community, and between women and men, in order to advance towards its democratization. O artigo argumenta que o cuidado é de particular interesse para a antropologia econômica, uma vez que incorpora tendências aparentemente contraditórias: permanecer na esfera familiar, fora das relações trabalho/capital e, por outro lado, encontrar-se num processo de mercantilização e ser construído como uma questão social e política. Ambas as tendências se localizam, por sua vez, na tensão entre os mecanismos de produção e reprodução social. O artigo trata da questão do cuidado como um direito e, portanto, como uma questão de âmbito político. Partindo da constatação de que o cuidado recai desproporcionalmente sobre mulheres e famílias, sugere a necessidade de sua redistribuição equitativa entre família, Estado e comunidade, e entre mulheres e homens, a fim de avançar para sua democratização. El artículo plantea que el cuidado reviste un interés particular para la antropología económica, ya que incorpora tendencias aparentemente contradictorias: permanecer en el ámbito familiar, fuera de las relaciones de trabajo/capital, y por otro lado, hallarse en un proceso de mercantilización y de construirse como una cuestión social y política. Ambas tendencias se sitúan a su vez en la tensión entre los mecanismos de producción y de reproducción social. El artículo aborda el tema del cuidado como derecho y, por tanto, como una cuestión de alcance político. Partiendo de la constatación de que el cuidado recae de forma desproporcionada en las mujeres y en las familias, sugiere la necesidad de su redistribución equitativa entre familia, Estado y comunidad, y entre mujeres y hombres, para avanzar hacia su democratización. application/pdf http://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/CAS/article/view/6190 10.34096/cas.i49.6190 spa Instituto de Ciencias Antropológicas, Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, UBA http://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/CAS/article/view/6190/5626 Cuadernos de antropología social; Núm. 49 (2019): Repensando temas de Antropología Económica 1850-275X 0327-3776 Care Social Reproduction Gender Social Justice Citizen Rights Reproducción Social Género Justicia Social Derechos cuidado Cuidado Reprodução Social Gênero Justiça Social Direitos Do Cidadão Social care and rights.

description The article argues that care is of particular interest to economic anthropology, as it incorporates seemingly contradictory tendencies: to remain in the family sphere, outside of labor/capital relations and, on the other hand, to be in the process of commodification and to be constructed as a social and political question.

The article deals with the issue of care as a right and, therefore, as an issue of political scope.
