PAUTASSI, Laura Cecilia. The complexity of articulating rights: nutrition and care. Salud colect. [online]. 2016, vol.12, n.4, pp.621-634. ISSN 1669-2381.  http://dx.doi.org/10.18294/sc.2016.941.

This article analyzes the existing tensions between the recognition of human rights - especially the right to adequate food as it is defined in international agreements and treaties - and the insufficient connection made with care, understood as the set of activities necessary to satisfy the basic needs of existence and human and social reproduction. Applying a methodological approach based in rights and gender, the article analyzes, on one hand, the scope of the right to food and its impact at the level of public institutionality, and on the other, the recent recognition of care as a right at a regional level and its persistent invisibilization in public policies. The results obtained allow for a research and action agenda that identifies tensions and opportunities to achieve universalization in the exercise of rights based in comprehensive and interdependent public policies.
