Author explores the processes of the relocation of care between and among genders and between the private and public spheres focusing on Slovenia as a post socialist country and a member state of the European Union. The aim is twofold, first to explore how the processes of care occur nowadays in relation to gender in family life (unpaid and paid domestic work and caring work); and second, to question whether the paternity leave in Slovenia is fostering caring masculinities.
