The objective of this article is to analyze the working class experience at the Bella Vista sugar mill community located at the Tucuman province (Argentinean northwest). We focused on understanding how daily life of workers and the dynamics of this sugar-producing community were resignified by the arrival of Peronism, particularly the advancement of unionism and the power of workers, inseparable processes accompanying the repositioning of the State in labor matters. We believe that the creation and strengthening of unions interfered with business paternalism practices, contributed to the promotion of sociability forms different from patron-related issues, and represented a challenge for the traditional power of industrialists. The reduction of the analytical scale in this work facilitates the understanding of relatively unexplored aspects of daily life of sugar mill workers at the beginning of peronism. We, then, recover the characteristics of a set of workers that have been frequently homogenized due to their relation with the sugar mill and their common ground as union members. We advanced in a microanalysis perspective that is ranked in a tangential place within the historiography of this period.

Palabras clave : Tucumán; working community; unions; sugar mill industry; peronism.
