Description

This comprehensive analysis examines the rapid expansion of intensive fresh fruit and vegetable production across Mediterranean regions in south and west Europe over the past three decades. The book addresses the critical role of migrating seasonal workers from Eastern Europe, North Africa and Latin America in supporting this agricultural growth. It is the first work to explore global agro-migration complexes across the region in depth. The author argues that both intensive agricultural production and the associated working conditions are highly dynamic systems that have transformed from small-scale family farming into an industrialised component of the global economy. Published by Routledge, this scholarly work provides essential insight into the social and economic dimensions of contemporary Mediterranean agriculture and the human cost of meeting European demand for fresh produce.
