Abstract

El presente trabajo examina las vinculaciones que se establecen entre los individuos, analizando las transferencias que los hogares realizan en tiempo y dinero con el potencial acceso a ayuda entre familiares. El principal objetivo de este trabajo es entender si instancias en las que los miembros de una familia asisten a un familiar pueden ser consideradas como inversiones en redes y por tanto acumulación de capital social, o simplemente ser gestos de tipo altruista. Por otra parte, analiza los intercambios potenciales de asistencia (dinero vs tiempo). El trabajo encuentra que las asistencia entre hogares con lazos de parentesco es motivada por el intercambio. No existe especialización de los hogares, la ayuda provista en tiempo y dinero son sustitutos y no complementarios.
