description In light of contemporary efforts of some governments in the region to distance themselves from the neoliberal paradigm, this article aims to study the politics of welfare and care implemented by the Rafael Correa government. Turning to the literature on welfare regimes, this article tries to capture the existence of continuities and/or breaks in the politics of social intervention with respect to the liberalization period, and their effects on the production of welfare. As a result, this study makes reference to the configuration of a regime that displays a remarkable decommodification process, however weakened by its defamilization in the production of social welfare.

Teniendo en cuenta los esfuerzos contemporáneos de algunos gobiernos de la región por distanciarse del paradigma neoliberal, es intención del presente artículo estudiar las políticas de bienestar y cuidado llevadas a cabo en Ecuador durante el primer periodo de gobierno de Rafael Correa. Recurriendo a la literatura sobre regímenes de bienestar se busca capturar la existencia de continuidades y/o rupturas en las políticas de intervención social con respecto del periodo de liberalización y sus efectos en la producción de bienestar. Como resultado, este trabajo hace referencia a la configuración de un régimen en el que se identifica un destacable proceso de desmercantilización pero uno débil de desfamiliarización en la producción de bienestar social.
