Welfare Paradoxes and Interpersonal Pacts: Transnational Social Protection of Latin American Migrants in Spain

This article analyses the relationship between migration, care work, and welfare provision, highlighting the role of Latin American migrants in Spain as providers of formal and informal social protection on a transnational scale. It contributes to the debate on transnational social protection and transnational social inequalities from the perspective of welfare paradoxes and interpersonal pacts. Migrant women in Spain have become a resource for the provision of formal social protection through their employment as domestic care workers. Nevertheless, given that access to social rights in Spain depends on job stability and residency status, they have difficulties in accessing formal social protection themselves. This process constitutes a “welfare paradox,” based on the commodification and exclusion paradoxes, explained by structural factors such as the characteristics of the welfare regime (familiaristic model, with a tendency to hire domestic workers as caregivers into households), the migration regime (feminised and with a clear leaning towards Latin American women), and the economic landscape resulting from two systemic crises: the great recession of 2008 and the Covid‐19 pandemic. Interpersonal pacts, rooted in marriage/couple and intergenerational agreements, and their infringements, are analysed to explain the transnational and informal social protection strategies in the context of the “exclusion paradox” and the breach of the “welfare pact.” Our research draws on the exploitation of secondary data and multi‐sited, longitudinal fieldwork based on biographical interviews conducted with various members of transnational families in Spain and Ecuador (41 interviews).

El trabajo de cuidados constituye un conjunto de actividades indispensables para el sostenimiento de la vida y del tejido social. A pesar de ello, se trata de un trabajo invisibilizado y escasamente reconocido social y económicamente. Este artículo articula el enfoque del curso de vida y la perspectiva interseccional con el objetivo de analizar las implicaciones del trabajo de cuidados, ya sea o no remunerado, sobre las distintas etapas del ciclo vital de una generación de mujeres migrantes. Para ello se ha utilizado una metodología de tipo cualitativo a través de 24 entrevistas en profundidad a mujeres de origen ecuatoriano que residen en la ciudad de Madrid y que trabajan o han trabajado en el sector de los cuidados a personas mayores. Las conclusiones apuntan a que el trabajo de cuidados tiende a lastrar las trayectorias de las mujeres migrantes hacia la escasez de recursos y la invisibilidad social: por un lado, porque sus trayectorias laborales en España se han centrado en el sector de los cuidados, uno de los más infravalorados y peor remunerados del mercado laboral; por otro lado, porque en distintas etapas del ciclo vital han tenido que hacer frente a dinámicas familiares que implicaban cuidados no remunerados a escala transnacional. El artículo muestra distintas tensiones que genera en estas mujeres un modelo de cuidados que se asienta sobre su trabajo pero que no es capaz de garantizar su derecho a cuidar y ser cuidadas.
