TENSIONES Y PARADOJAS EN LA MATERIALIZACIÓN DE LAS POLÍTICAS SOCIALES Y DE SALUD EN ARGENTINA (2004 – 2014). UNA PERSPECTIVA FEMINISTA

This article seeks to share the analyses that we have carried out, from a feminist perspective, around social policies recently implemented in Argentina. In 2004, the Kirchner administration introduced a social policy reform based on a rights approach and critical of neoliberal rationality. In this scenario, subsidies are received and administered by women, a move that reinforces the sexual division of labor. Our analysis focuses on the actual implementation of policies, showing how this redefinition has created a peculiar junction between bestowing democracy over women (through a rights rhetoric and the gender components in social policy) and the effective interventions, infused with contradictions that deepen the fragmentation between distribution and recognition within State actions.
