Farewell Note from the Departing Editor
Export Agribusiness, Multimodal Dispossession, and Livelihood Reconstitution in Baja California
Expanding California’s agribusiness model, the production of fresh fruits and vegetables in San Quintín, Baja California, represents a paradigmatic case of the growth of export commercial agriculture in Mexico. Through intensive use of labor, land, and water, this region contributes to the supply of fresh produce to US markets led by transnational food retailers. Grounded in ethnographic research, we interpret farmworkers’ experiences in San Quin…

Water Flowing North of the Border
Favored by neoliberal agrarian policies, the production of fresh crops for international markets has become a common strategy for economic development in Mexico and other Latin American countries. But as some scholars have argued, the global fresh produce industry in developing countries in which fresh crops are produced for consumer markets in affluent nations implies "virtual water flows," the transfer of high volumes of water embedded in these…
The Persistence of Subsistence Agriculture
Janitors, Street Vendors, and Activists
This highly accessible, engagingly written book exposes the underbelly of California’s Silicon Valley, the most successful high-technology region in the world, in a vivid ethnographic study of Mexican immigrants employed in Silicon Valley’s low-wage jobs. Christian Zlolniski’s on-the-ground investigation demonstrates how global forces have incorporated these workers as an integral part of the economy through subcontracting and other flexible labo…
Labor Control and Resistance of Mexican Immigrant Janitors in Silicon Valley
Since the 1980s, the forces of national and global restructuring have led to the proliferation of labor subcontracting arrangements in the United States that use immigrant workers to increase labor flexibility and reduce labor costs, particularly in the service sector. A case in point is the building-cleaning industry in Silicon Valley in northern California, which relies on Mexican and other Latino immigrants to clean the offices of major high-t…
