Resumen
¿En qué medida las transferencias condicionadas (TMC), programas “estrella” de la
nueva generación de la política social latinoamericana, inhiben o promueven mayores
grados de igualdad de género? Usando un instrumento teórico-empírico novedoso, y
a partir de fuentes primarias y secundarias, nuestro análisis compara tres países con
regímenes de bienestar contrastantes: Chile, Costa Rica y El Salvador. Mostramos
que, aunque en términos de la igualdad de género, los programas TMC se basan en
supuestos que en principio exacerban la histórica división del trabajo entre hombres y
mujeres, también pueden transformarla.
To what extent do conditional cash transfer (CCT) programs, the “star” programs of the new generation of Latin American public policy, promote or inhibit greater degrees of gender equality? Using a novel theoretical-empirical tool for the study of gender equality, and based on primary and secondary information, our analysis compares three countries with contrasting welfare regimes, Chile, Costa Rica and El Salvador. In terms of gender equality, although CCT programs are based on assumptions that exacerbate the historical division of labour between women and men, they can also debilitate it.
