In this article we aboard the strategy developed by the unions of state workers, especially the unions with major number of members during the last years of the '80s. This years have very importance in the province, in the context of a strong change at the national level, covering the crisis and change of the social economic structure which had previously built, the crisis of the provincial government in 1987, the assumption of a government of opposite political sign, and the resignation of the new governor in 1990, as result of a strong cycle of social conflicts. In this context the provincial state went through a deeply crisis. During this crisis the state unions were developing various strategies, articulating cooptation and confrontation with the political power of turn. At the same years this unions developed intern struggles and divisions for the different political lines, which in some cases bring more force and in others mined the process of construction of their unions. From this approach we try to understand the role that these unions met in social conflict, according to their construction processes and their confrontations. We observe how the process of social conflict that ends in 1990's "chubutazo", and the different political projects to the provincial state that there were in competition.
