VERA ROJAS, William Daniel; BARRA URQUIETA, Carina de La  y  MONTES MALDONADO, Cecilia. The institutional approach to child care: Chile and Uruguay. Perf. latinoam. [online]. 2018, vol.26, n.52. ISSN 0188-7653.  https://doi.org/10.18504/pl2652-013-2018.

The article compares the childcare regime in Chile and Uruguay by applying the institutional approach. We examine three political instruments on childcare: care services for children from 0 to 5 years old, domestic paid work, leaves and money to care. We use the comparative international case study method, by using different data sources. The outcomes show that both countries display a mixed pattern between familialism and des-familialism and diverse types of socioeconomic and gender equity according to the political instruments types analyzed.

Palabras llave : Childcare; institutional approach; familialism; equity; domestic work; Chile; Uruguay.
