“…The international Sociology of Care diagnoses primarily three interwoven tendencies essentially characterising and driving the current societal organisation of social reproduction, care, and care work: their forced marketisation; the transnationalisation of labour and policies; the transformation of the welfare state and new forms of governance (Anderson and Shutes, 2014;Klenk and Pavolini, 2015;Kofman and Raghuram, 2015;Mahon and Robinson, 2011).These tendencies are pushing and influencing the organisation of care and care work in all societal spheres, but this does not mean that they do it in the same way. If we only have a look on the commodification of the social reproduction, a wide range of capitalist access to care and care work appears; just to give a few particularly salient examples: "care extractivism" in the case of surrogacy or egg freezing and further access to the body treating it as a natural resource (Wichterich, 2016); capitalist Landnahme of social reproduction acquiring care and care work directly or indirectly by accumulation driven dynamics (Dörre et al, 2014); industrialisation and technologisation like the digitalisation and robotisation of care and care work in transnational research, development and production networks (Aulenbacher and Dammayr, 2014); the human-capital-oriented paradigm of social investment substituting welfare through workfare (Atzmüller, 2014) or "social impact bonds" encouraging private investment in social services (Dowling, 2016) in the OECD; the enforced commodification of domestic work and care in the context of inter-and transnational migration (Anderson and Shutes, 2014). Such forms of marketisation and quasi-marketisation of social reproduction cannot be understood sufficiently if they are only interpreted in the frame of the ongoing capitalist commodification of nature and labour and the relations of class.…”
