Motherhood, children and care: A look from a water access policy in the brazilian semiarid In this article, we analyze the implementation of a policy of access to water in a quilombola community in the agreste of Pernambuco in order to think about how different conceptions of health, body and hygiene affect the modes of relationship between mothers and children. We investigated how the state discourse chooses these social groups as the target of its actions, creating regulation and control devices that place care practices that produce corporealities and collectives in the foreground. These practices, seen from the relations of class, gender, race and generation that engender them, unfold in mechanisms of public evaluation both of the behavior and temperament of children, as well as the exercise of motherhood. |
