The vulnerability fix
This article draws together political economic theories of labor market precarity and theories about the role of difference in structuring labor market inequality to develop the concept of vulnerability fix. We argue that employers and the state have co-constructed a complicated set of programs and policies that have institutionalized unfreedom for a significant subsection of the workforce. At the bottom of the labor market, they have created cat…
Redefining Discrimination
The authors examine the unique role that racism plays in guiding and structuring anti-environmental ideas and behaviors. They focus on the influence of reactionary colorblindness, which is a legal strategy that promotes race-neutral individuality and activates white resentment in seeking to reverse policies for racial equality. The authors ask, In what ways do anti-environmental policies harness, replicate, and repurpose the logic of reactionary …
Social reproduction in crisis
The pandemic lays bare the centrality of social reproduction in upholding global commodity networks. Capitalism's reliance on gendered and racialized systems of social reproduction has deepened structural contradictions and socio‐economic divides across agro‐export sectors and agrarian communities. We analyse how COVID‐19 policies and responses in Ecuador and Chile are reshaping systems of social and labour protection in feminized agro‐export sec…
From rationalized exploitation to supra sacrifice zones
Gendered labor legacies of authoritarian neoliberalism
Legacies of Chile's democratic crisis pose challenges for workplace gender equity. This paper brings together scholarly debates on gender regimes and factory regimes to examine the gendered labor practices in a high‐tech, transnational agricultural sector. Specifically, I ask how gender regimes and regulatory practices entrenched in Chile's authoritarian past shape labor dynamics in this industry today. I argue that we must look to the past to un…
Worksites as Sacrifice Zones
As meatpacking facilities became COVID-19 hotspots, the pandemic renewed the importance of longstanding claims from environmental justice and agrifood scholars. The former asserts the perceived dispensability of marginalized populations sustains environmental injustices, whereas the latter stresses that decades of industrial consolidation created structural instability in the food supply chain. This article asks how industry and government levera…
Repeat Players, the Law, and Social Change
Powerful corporations leverage the law to shape the regulatory environments in which they operate. A key strategy for achieving this is litigation. I ask under what conditions corporations litigate, and specifically, what happens when two repeat players, transnational agribusiness firms and local governments, face each other in court. I compare outcomes of two cases-Hawaii and Arica, Chile-documenting how different sociopolitical contexts and leg…
Dimensions of Power in Regulatory Regime Selection
This article investigates the process through which transnational firms select and develop sites for their operations. I build a framework to understand how firms' localization strategies not only entail a choice among regulatory regimes but how they also coproduce those regimes while responding to community resistance. My account is based on a multisited ethnography of two research and development hubs for the U.S. corn seed market. The genetica…
Manufacturing a natural advantage
Despite the assumption that firms in high-tech sectors rely on technology to render nature obsolete, this article shows that technology has made nature and place paramount to the genetically modified (GM) corn seed industry. The present work focuses on research and development (R&D) stations for the top five firms, which control nearly 90% of the U.S. corn market. The main factors that influence firms’ selection of these sites and the role these …
