MENDIZABAL BERMUDEZ, Gabriela. Análisis comparativo de las prestaciones de seguridad social por maternidad. Bol. Mex. Der. Comp. [online]. 2006, vol.39, n.116, pp.453-479. ISSN 2448-4873.

The author of this article examines the rules on social protection of maternity as a protected risk, and concludes that the evolution ofsuch rules has been stopped in Mexico. Through a comparative law study, the author identifies important reforms that have produced gender equality in other countries like Italy, Spain and Austria. References to the law ofthese countries are made, including considerations related to the "generating fact", that is, maternity, as well as to norms that have expanded social protection to the father, and norms on adoption. These kind of rules have not been adopted by Mexico's legislation. Finally, the author concludes his essay making proposing that further and wider studies are required to reform social security benefits to maternity in Mexico.
