CLOSA, Gabriela. Unions against: fights and protests over the setting in cordoba. The union of water works and its confrontation with the state provincial). Rev. Esc. Hist. [online]. 2009, vol.8, n.2. ISSN 1669-9041.

In October 1989 the Executive of the province of Cordoba sent to the Legislature, the bill Provincial State Administrative Reform. In those days, the governor of Cordoba was Eduardo César Angeloz, who belonged to the Unión Cívica Radical. The project aimed to reduce the functions of government, promote decentralization of many of its activities and promote the privatization of some of its major units. In keeping with the policy outlined by the national government of Carlos Menem, this bill was the local expression of the provisions of the law the Emergency Economic and State Reform, recently sanctioned. The former, through Article 68, inviting provinces to join their guidelines and therefore the national government to the provinces required to adjust its law to the new rules. For the provincial government, the project was conceived as an enabling tool for overcoming the difficult economic situation in the province who lived in those days, characterized by rising inflation and shortfalls in state resources. Because of these factors had on the employees in Cordoba, a widespread discontent which was evidenced by a sustained demand in pursuit of wage increases. Thus, the executive of the province of Cordoba presented to the Legislature of the Province the Bill of Administrative Reform, also called Emergency, and treated first, as it should according to the legislative procedure, the Chamber of Deputies. The presentation led to an intense mobilization of workers in the city of Cordoba who shifted their protests, pre-existing opposition to the new law. The protests were staged by state employees, but also joined those who belonged to the private sector. This event is then the starting point for exploring the role that brought forward the Sindicato del Personal de Obras Sanitarias (SiPOS) against the privatization process launched by the Provincial State. Earlier that year he had assumed the leadership of a group of union leaders who opposed the new policy guidelines, initiated a change in the forms of struggle and marked differences with respect to those who had, until then, control of union. In this framework, this paper seeks to analyze the development of the conflict from the perspective of social movement theory mainly rescue the concept of political opportunities, mobilizing structures and creation of interpretive frameworks. We also recognize, as a hypothesis that while the actions taken by the Union of Sanitation Workers in Cordoba, did not lead to the formation of a social movement was the expression of new forms of collective action and showed significant changes in the Cordoba prevailing union leadership of the late eighties.
