COMINS-MINGOL, Irene. Refoundation of the equality agenda from the philosophy of caring. Convergencia [online]. 2022, vol.29, e17971.  Epub Sep 19, 2022. ISSN 2448-5799.  https://doi.org/10.29101/crcs.v29i0.17971.

Gender equality agenda has experienced a growing normalization and institutionalization both in Spain and internationally. However, this process is paradoxically parallel to another simultaneous and progressive process of depoliticization of the equality agenda. The causes of this loss of transformative efficacy are complex. In this article, without intending to be exhaustive in its aetiology, the main concurring factors are pointed out. Likewise, in the second part of the article, a proposal to refound the equality agenda from the ethics of care and the construction of new masculinities is presented. An equality that goes beyond the public sphere to contemplate the still invisible spaces of the house and the world of care. An equality that implies evolution and change in the way-of-being-in-the-world of men, and not only of women.

Keywords : equality; gender; ethic of care; feminism; masculinities.
