The article that follows presents the principal theorical, practical and methodologic lines that have gone following in the investigation of the use of the time. We approximate to the concept time use linking to the concept of gender in a space where the variables woman, family and labour crisscross. We are initiating the study by the intemational investigation; later, we are presenting the national panorama; follows, we are observing important lacks in the historical analysis and are enumerating the most recent proposed theories and regulations over the theme that occupies us. We complete the article with a succinct bibliographic repertoire where we gather the most interesting contributions over the use of the time and other related thematic.
