EL CUIDADO COMO IDEA POLÍTICA: RESEÑA DEL LIBRO “NUEVOS DERECHOS: INFRAESTRUCTURA DEL CUIDADO EN LA ARGENTINA Y AMÉRICA LATINA” DE ROXANA MAZZOLA (COMPILADORA) (2023) EDITORIAL PROMETEO: BUENOS AIRES.

Abstract

This article presents a review of the book Nuevos derechos: infraestructura del cuidado en la Argentina y América Latina, edited by Roxana Mazzola. This collective volume examines care infrastructure as a strategic component of public policy. It expands the traditional concept of infrastructure beyond its merely material dimension, instead framing it as a set of devices, processes, and resources designed to ensure access to care under conditions of social justice. The authors underscore the necessity of an active state role aimed at reducing persistent inequalities embedded in the social organization of care.
