Abstract
Este artículo analiza las relaciones de poder en el discurso sobre la maternidad en un grupo de madres de los grupos socioeconómicos bajo, medio y alto. A partir de un enfoque teórico-metodológico que integra el modelo dialéctico-relacional de Fairclough y el sistema de VALORACIÓN, se demuestra que las relaciones de poder están principalmente mediadas por una marcada separación de los espacios reproductivos y productivos en función de género, que condiciona y sitúa a las madres en posiciones jerárquicas de mayor o menor sumisión. Debido a su dependencia económica, las madres de clase baja adoptan un rol sumiso frente a sus parejas y sus propias madres, mientras que las de clase alta se posicionan como mujeres empoderadas porque son exitosas en la esfera productiva. Sin embargo, cuando representan a los padres en oposición a las madres, se evidencia que no se han revertido las prácticas desiguales en la crianza, siendo las madres del grupo socioeconómico medio las únicas que cuestionan a una sociedad que perpetúa la división sexual de los roles.
This article examines the power dynamics in motherhood among mothers from low, middle, and high socioeconomic groups. Using a theoretical-methodological approach that integrates Fairclough's dialectical-relational model and the APPRAISAL system, it is demonstrated that power relations are mainly mediated by a marked separation of reproductive and productive spaces based on gender, which conditions and places mothers in hierarchical positions of greater or lesser submission. Due to their economic dependence, lower-class mothers adopt a submissive role towards their partners and their own mothers, while upper-class mothers position themselves as empowered women because they are successful in the productive sphere. However, when representing fathers in opposition to mothers, it becomes evident that unequal practices in child-rearing have not been reversed, with only mothers from the middle socioeconomic group questioning a society that perpetuates the sexual division of roles.
