Abstract

In Argentina, the work-family conciliation has historically been constituted as an exclusive problem for working mothers. However, an incipient series of business studies has begun to delineate the concept of corporate family responsibility, which involves adopting "family friendly" actions that not only address women but also include working men. This new scenario makes it possible to ask why the work-family conciliation begins to be thought of as a business problem and from what logic are the "family friendly" actions proposed. Based on the selection of a corpus of publications of the Center for Research on Family and Business Conciliation (Austral University), the proposal is to reconstruct and critically analyze the logic from which these actions are conceived and undertaken, as well as their relationships and tensions with the logic of the right to care posed by the feminist movement and academy.
