LERUSSI, Romina. Domestic Employment and Labor Violence. Critical Notes from a Feminist Legal Point of View. Estud. Socio-Juríd [online]. 2016, vol.18, n.2, pp.147-174. ISSN 0124-0579.  https://doi.org/10.12804/esj18.02.2016.05.

The March 13, 2013 was approved in Argentina the "Special Regimen of Work Contract for Personal Private Houses". This standard abrogated the previous Decree 326/1956, which for over fifty years and sanctioned in the context of military dictatorship, had regulated the domestic sector under conditions that have been considered not only discriminatory but also unconstitutional. From a feminist legal perspective, the general hypothesis we support is that despite having a new regulation, the problems associated with such modalities of structural labor violence as exclusion, inequality, invisibility and the historic undervaluation given to this feminized work, will not be solved only with a new law (which, however, we celebrate), but with radical interpretations of what the dogmatic called "legal nature" of this sector. Under this hypothesis, in this article we concentrate on one of the three elements of the "legal nature" of domestic work: the recipient of the services understood as family or family life.
