The Covid-19 crisis has exposed the limitations of current approaches to care, but political reforms struggle to gain momentum and fundamental changes to care systems are hampered by long-term structural conditions, disinvestment and political fragmentation. This project argues that to transform the social organization of care we need to understand the normative and political underpinning of "good" care and engage in a politics of coalition-building that spans the multiple inequalities in the care relationship and involves both those in need and those providing care. The project combines rights-based and discursive approaches to investigate how these issues play out in social mobilizations developed around particular instances of reforms in Europe.
