Abstract

This study aims to describe chronologically the legal, political and media that has been built in Spain around the work and family conflict. To do this, we have started from an analysis of the major laws affecting the reconciliation of work and family life; parliamentary initiatives on this subject have happened over the last three legislatures and how the media, the press, has approached the problem of reconciliation, what have been the key frames. The aim was to identify whether there was any gender bias and, ultimately define how built the problem of reconciliation in Spain.
