ABSTRACT
This paper explores how in the current socio-economic Spanish context, the gender of main elderly caregivers who cares for other elders influences caregiving practice. This qualitative study had a postfeminist approach and was developed in Mallorca (Spain) by means of individual interviews and focus groups with male and female home caregivers from three generations. A radically different gender discourses are identified in the participants narrative in relation to strategies developed, perception of social isolation and demands expressed regarding caregiving. The implications of these results to public policy are discussed (AU)
