In the context of globalization and the transformation of welfare states, the formation of global care chains is one of the most paradigmatic phenomena of the current feminization of migration. Global care chains are a strategic instantiation of gender dynamics in the current global economy and they provide a privileged platform from which to debate the link between migration and development. Also, it is a strategic location because it allows for public debate about questions that often remain hidden (they comprise, we could say, the hidden development agenda): On the one hand, the position that care occupies in the social structure and the priority that it is granted in the development models at local, national and global levels. And, on the other hand, the role that gender plays as a vertebral axis of the social and economic systems, that is, as the place that is considered suitable for women and men in the economy.
