Irish horticulture is heavily reliant on seasonal migrant workers, who are especially vulnerable to exploitation and abuse. With PhD researcher Rebecca Vining, this podcast uses the case study of Romanian-Irish labour migration to identify how this exploitation has been built into the global agri-food system. By applying a "world-ecology" approach, it is possible to link land grabbing in Romania to exploitation in Ireland, and to identify new pathways for solidarity and resistance.
