Recently, empirical analyzes and research by academia on the topic of care have expanded significantly: development of new concepts such as the social organization of care, studies on the configuration of demand and supply of care, research on the links between female migration and care, analysis of public policies, studies on care practices in different generations, surveys on the social representations of care, among many others.
