Domestic and care work in dual-earner couples: Comparative analysis of Spain, Argentina and Chile This article analyses the unpaid household work gender gap in Spain, Argentina and Chile. Specifically, this study explores the distribution of domestic and care work among household members and examines in depth the relevant factors of women's and men's participation in this work. Employing time use surveys (Spanish EET-2010, Argentinian TRN-2013 and Chilean ENUT-2015), a regression model is estimated for a sample of dual-income couples. Additionally, the study analyses the macrosocial factors that affect the gender gap. The results show that women perform 70% of domestic and care work and confirm the weakness of the variables related to relative resources, thus suggesting the need to incorporate the gender role perspective and structural, institutional, and cultural factors in explaining gender gaps in unpaid work. The relevance of women's time availability and income contribution points to the importance of actions aimed at promoting the economic independence of women and strengthening legal frameworks that protect equal pay conditions for women. These elements are key to explaining men's and women's decisions on how to distribute their time between paid and unpaid work in Spain, Argentina and Chile.
This article aims to analyze how the community of Latin American women living in Barcelona display their agency ability, considering how processes of inclusion and exclusion tend to constitute certain synergies that place them as active subjects in the migration becoming. The theoretical framework is developed from the main contributions that have been done in the area of migration studies, focusing mainly on those that have used gender as an analytic category and those that have incorporated a transnational perspective. In addition, approaches that have theorized about the processes of exclusion and inclusion are presented, then the concept of key feminist agency is introduced. Thus, and from an analysis model that emerges from the theoretical and empirical work with twenty-five Latin American women in Barcelona, Spain, between 2015 and 2016, different ways are observed in which women strengthen their agency, which allows them to build associative spaces in order to survive and thrive socially, economically and personally.
El término homonacionalismo ofrece una nueva aproximación a la relación entre racismo y tolerancia con gais y lesbianas en sociedades contemporáneas. Este trabajo presenta un estudio comparativo sobre la extensión y evolución de valores homonacionalistas en Argentina, España, Países Bajos y Uruguay entre 1989-1993 y 2010-2014 siendo uno de los pocos trabajos cuantitativos en los estudios sobre homonacionalismo. Mediante el análisis de las oleadas de la World Value Survey para los distintos países, se operativiza el concepto para evidenciar la irrupción de los valores homonacionalistas en Europa a partir de 2001; así como su extensión a otras regiones propicias para la construcción de un excepcionalismo sexual. Los resultados si bien constatan su fuerte presencia en los discursos contradicen la hegemonía homonacionalista en los valores de las sociedades.
RESUMENEl análisis de la valoración que las personas egresadas en sociología realizan sobre las competencias que obtuvieron en su formación universitaria, y su utilidad percibida en la inserción y trayectoria profesional proporciona evidencias para la discusión sobre la relación entre la profesión y la titulación-formación. A partir de los datos proporcionados por la encuesta sobre "La situación profesional de los titulados y doctores en Sociología y Ciencias Políticas" que se realizó en el año 2014, los resultados muestran que las inserciones profesionales en el ámbito profesional de la sociología se caracterizan por una diversidad de trayectorias. En un mercado profesional donde las fronteras disciplinarias son difusas, cobran relevancia tanto aquellas competencias relacionadas con las capacidades instrumentales y personales, aquellas más específicas de conocimientos disciplinares con una necesaria aplicabilidad de los conocimientos y habilidades de la práctica del trabajo sociológico.Palabras clave: Formación universitaria, competencias, profesión, sociologo/a, planes de estudio.
