- Abstract
This work is part of a study about the perceptions of care and its relationship with practices in organizational contexts linked to the care of people. Said study was developed in a neighborhood coexistence center of the municipal district, and a day center for adults with intellectual disabilities, both located in the Central Region of Argentina, between the years 2019 and 2022. The research was implemented from a qualitative methodology, and data were collected in semi-structured, open and in-depth interviews, and participant observation sessions. This article addresses the results of the case corresponding to the neighborhood coexistence center. The results indicate that the perceptions and practices of care present ethical-political dimensions that contribute to the generation of a sense of community. It is concluded that this ethical-political dimension is fundamental to counteract the individualism of self-sufficiency, as well as to sustain existential territories founded on the care of life.
