GRANERO, María Georgina. Housework and Exchange among Paraguayan immigrants in Rosario (Argentina): an anthropological approach. Trab. soc. [online]. 2015, n.25, pp.23-44. ISSN 1514-6871.
Nowadays, the study of housework as the main employment among immigrant women presents a transnational scale and different possible dimensions: social, economical, political and cultural ones. In this presentation, we will focus on the situation of Paraguayan house-workers in the urban area of Rosario city (Santa Fe, Argentina), from an anthropological and qualitative view. We will use a corpus based on interviews and observations, which were made between 2011 and 2013 among Paraguayan migrants in that location. We will analyze that register using the anthropologic category of exchange to define the relations in this work field. Thus, we intend to explore the implications that exchange has in the relation that immigrants built among them and with their employers, as long as, there, ties are implicated and contrasted, debts are generated, social relations are produced and reproduced. Finally, we will continue our approach toward the analysis of immigrant workers’ value representations connected with: the work field, the nationality and migration and gender condition; from their intersection has been suggested the particularity of this social-working insertion.
