Keynote: The care crisis in the Global North: Characteristics, Consequences and policy options

Aktivitet: Tale eller præsentationForedrag og mundtlige bidrag

Beskrivelse

Currently, there is politically an emerging consensus of a poly-crisis in the global North. Rarely, this includes an understanding of a care crisis. I outline the characteristics of a care crisis including the experiences of care professionals and those at the receiving end, and I argue that ignoring the care crisis has serious consequences for the sustainability of various welfare regimes. Finally, I identify some of the actual and possible strategies to lessen the care crisis – and recreate a caring state – and discuss their implications from a feminist perspective.
