Abstract

BARD WIGDOR, Gabriela; PAZ, Magali  and  CAMACHO BECERRA, Jeli Edith. Women’s Position in State Intervention Programs: Feminized Territories (Mexico and Argentina). Econ. soc. territ [online]. 2022, vol.22, n.68, pp.87-115.  Epub May 02, 2022. ISSN 2448-6183.  https://doi.org/10.22136/est20221664.

The paper analyses women’s role in territorially anchored public policies. First, and given the context of crisis in both countries where the programs were applied, the paper reflects on the importance of the State as a necessary linkage for the reactivation of regional economies. Then, and based on qualitative data, it can be seen that women’s work fluctuates between what the formal economy considers “social reproduction” and production itself. Finally, it is reflected that women’s economic contribution is made invisible by the artificial patriarchal/capitalist division between the public and the private.

Keywords : women; public policies; (re)productive work; social economy.
