| Resumo |
Care has come to dominate much feminist research on globalized migrations and the transfer of labor from the South to the North, while the older concept of reproduction had been pushed into the background but is now becoming the subject of debates on the commodification of care in the household and changes in welfare state policies. This article argues that we could achieve a better understanding of the different modalities and trajectories of care in the reproduction of individuals, families, and communities, both of migrant and nonmigrant populations by articulating the diverse circuits of migration, in particular that of labor and the family. In doing this, I go back to the earlier North American writing on racialized minorities and migrants and stratified social reproduction. I also explore insights from current Asian studies of gendered circuits of migration connecting labor and marriage migrations as well as the notion of global householding that highlights the gender politics of social reproduction operating within and beyond households in institutional and welfare architectures. In contrast to Asia, there has relatively been little exploration in European studies of the articulation of labor and family migrations through the lens of social reproduction. However, connecting the different types of migration enables us to achieve a more complex understanding of care trajectories and their contribution to social reproduction. Los cuidados se han convertido en un elemento predominante en gran parte de las investigaciones feministas sobre migraciones globalizadas y la transferencia de trabajo del Sur al Norte. El concepto de reproducción, en cambio, ha sido relegado durante años a un segundo plano, aunque ahora se está convirtiendo en el foco de los debates sobre la mercantilización de los cuidados en el hogar y las transformaciones de las políticas del estado de bienestar. Este artículo sostiene que, si vinculamos los diversos circuitos de migración y, sobre todo, los relacionados con el empleo y la familia, podremos comprender mejor las diferentes formas y recorridos de los cuidados en la reproducción de personas, familias y comunidades, tanto migrantes como no migrantes. Para ello, me retrotraigo a los trabajos estadounidenses sobre minorías racializadas y migrantes, así como sobre reproducción social estratificada. Asimismo, tomo algunas ideas de los actuales estudios asiáticos sobre circuitos migratorios generizados que establecen vínculos entre las migraciones por empleo y por matrimonio. También uso la noción de ‘familias transnacionales’ que pone de manifiesto cómo operan las políticas de género de la reproducción social, tanto en el seno como más allá de las familias, los hogares y las estructuras institucionales y de bienestar. Al contrario que en Asia, los estudios europeos apenas se han centrado en la vinculación que existe entre las migraciones laborales y las familiares desde el punto de vista de la reproducción social. Sin embargo, relacionar los diferentes tipos de migraciones permite comprender en su complejidad las trayectorias de los cuidados y el modo en que éstas contribuyen a la reproducción social. |
