Sumario:The article analyzes the social conflict in the towns of Tucumán in the face of the closure of sugar mills in the mid-1960s. To that end, the text explores the protests in the town of Villa Quinteros that originated after the closure of the local factory in 1967. Explaining the protests in the sugarcane villages involves reconstructing the characteristics of each community, examining the trajectories of the actors involved and replenishing the profiles of those who occupied leadership spaces. In this way, we seek to offer an interpretation of the functions performed by the neighbourhood commissions, the workers' union and the parish priest based on an analysis that recovers the complexity of the local dynamic.
