This article aims at reintroducing the study of the unemployed workers' organizations struggle in the last years of kirchnermism. Thisanalysis focuses in the demand for accessing and updating of the amounts pertaining to the ProgramaIngreso Social con Trabajo (Social Income through Labour Programme) referred to as Argentina Trabaja (Argentina Works). This paper seeks a reflexive update and an empirical review of the studies regarding the collective action of unemployed. On the basis of such a goal, an approach is proposed which describes and analyzes the struggle process of social movements. As regards action formats, their demands and their main organizations, as well as their interactions. The empirical basis encompasses a database of 307 actions built upon news published in national and local media regarding the struggle surrounding the Argentina Trabaja Programme. The time frame ranges from September 2009 to June 2012. As ancillary support we use a series of interviews to role models and grassroot activists of Frente Popular DaríoSantillán. The confrontation process studied makes it possible to show a new moment in relation to the unemployed workers' organizations. During this process the territorial grassroot groups who started the struggle, at a subsequent moment, became weaker and needed to link to the initiatives of trade-union or party organizations.

Keywords : Social organizations; Piquetero movement; Social conflict; Social protest; Income through Labour Programme Argentina works (Programaingreso social con trabajo Argentina Trabaja).
