The lodgment provided for seasonal workers managed by the agricultural union Unió de Pagesos. An infrastructure for discipline and labor supply
Abstract
The successful implementation of the system of import and supply of workers recruited in their home countries by the agricultural union Unió de Pagesos, has demanded the establishment of a network of lodgments provided for the concentration of labor. Its description and the establishment of typologies for its analysis have been made in order of showing its reality, usually obscured by the union's philanthropic discourse. A device of power, intended to tame the subject through the regulation of space and the presence of personnel in charge, its aim is to create a current of labor which is managed in a Fordist fashion. Its study shows that the traditional way to accommodate labor in agriculture is only surpassed in order to create a new legal status of worker, which is recruited in his home country to perform harvesting crops.Keywords
