Transformation of care regimes in Central Eastern Europe : The case of Croatia and the Czech Republic
Original language description
The multiple and extensive transformations in Eastern Europe did not bypass care, bringing diverse care regimes. The legitimisation of investments in the care infrastructure has become challenging in Eastern European countries; however, explicit policy measures that sought to assign women a reproductive and caring function as a primary one were accentuated to varying degrees. This chapter aims to explore the main trends in the development of care policies in Croatia (a post-Yugoslav country) and the Czech Republic (a Visegrád country). After a brief insight into the socialist period in which the care infrastructure was first established, post-1990 reforms in both the childcare-related and long-term care policies are analysed in more detail. The following questions are guiding the analysis: 1) how care rights have developed in the two countries (i.e. the extent to which and how care rights are recognised); 2) what are the similarities and differences in these countries’ care regimes.
