Abstract
During the mid-sixties an international crisis exploded. It shook up models of state and social protection, while also generating tensions within various social fields, including the child care field.
As part of this transformation, a series of processes took place that many authors have come to call a "care crisis".
Based on the definition of child care as a social field (in the terms used by Bourdieu and others, 2003; 2007), it can be noted that this crisis is expressed in the tension that occurs between the continuity of the principles and assumptions that structured the “traditional model of child care” –valid during most of the twentieth century- and a reality that no longer responds to these principles.
These crisis processes are more clearly seen in the lower classes through the emergence of new community care practices, among which it can be identified the comedores comunitarios [organizations that provide a package of essential service, basically food]. In this context, this paper wishes to study child care community practices developed by comedores comunitarios located in marginalized neighborhoods of the Greater Buenos Aires Area during 2003-2010; by doing so it was hoped to understand the reconfiguring processes undergone by the child care field during late capitalism and its expressions in vulnerable sectors.
The approach outline of this research can be framed within the structural-constructivist paradigm. Consistent with this theoretical stance, we propose a research which draws upon the complementary nature of qualitative and quantitative methodologies of data recollection and analysis.
Through the combination of different strategies could gather information from 220 organizations in different neighborhoods of the Greater Buenos Aires Area.
The research has enabled to describe the birth and consolidation of comedores comunitarios, while also mapping typologies and analyzing care practices developed by these organizations during the crisis of the traditional child care model.
