Notes for a domestic sociology

Abstract

The paper is a first approach to the domestic sociology. It is a review of the concept  of  home,  which  has  been  studied  from  different  angles  such as  family group,  configuration  of  social relations,  economic  unit  and  place  of  residence, using  some  relevant  research.  The  home,  understood  as  a  material place  of residence and housing, is a reflection of the socio-economic structure in which it is inserted.
