dc.description	En el presente artículo indago respecto a cuáles son las principales representaciones del cuidado infantil como problema de políticas públicas presentes en documentos oficiales y en la retórica de funcionarios del Estado ecuatoriano actualmente. Utilizo el enfoque deliberativo para el análisis de políticas públicas y argumento que estas representaciones se caracterizan por la ambivalencia entre visiones que consideran a las mujeres como principales responsables del cuidado y las que colocan al Estado y al mercado también como protagonistas. A ello se unen elementos que pueden favorecer cambios en las representaciones tradicionales como la inclusión, en el discurso, de la corresponsabilidad y, en la práctica, de la profesionalización del cuidado. Este artículo evidencia que el cuidado infantil es una categoría compleja y en disputa política, cuyas formas de representación tienen la capacidad de producir determinadas subjetividades marcadas por aspectos como el género y la clase.	es_EC
