The purpose of this paper is to analyze a particular policy of conditional transfer of income: Universal Assignment for Child for Social Protection (UCASP), implemented in Argentina in 2009 by the then President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, through the Decree of Need and Urgency N.º 1602/09, as a non-contributory subsystem within the Family Allowances Regime instituted by Law N.º 24,714 and under the jurisdiction of the National Social Security Administration (ANSES). The study, methodologically based on the documentary analysis, is structured around a series of axes that are essential to examine the AUHPS, among them: the regional antecedents, the context prior to its emergence, the normative juridical aspects that support it, the subjects of law, the considerations and debates of feminism and the pejorative view of the most reactionary conservative sectors that demonstrate against this type of social policy that tends to equate in rights to the sons and daughters of formal workers both with those of informal workers as with those of those who are circumstantially unemployed [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Starting from considering that social policies constitute a central link between the systemic order and the world of life of the populations, the aim of this paper is to explore the emotions of women mothers who have Conditional Cash Transfers of Income in Argentina linked to the social care and the conditionalities that they entail. This will be carried out based on a qualitative strategy, based on in-depth interviews. It is concluded that the social policies under study consolidate emotions linked to self-denial, postponement, the obligation in relation to the care tasks that they suppose and demand. This series of practices, emotions and feelings of the populations receiving the social policies worked, allow us to notice the connections between waiting, postponement and moral obligation in relation to social care.
