Will Work for Food: Labor across the Food Chain
Laura-Anne Minkoff-Zern
Examining the essential role—and exploitation—of frontline workers across the food chain. Food consumers are demanding a healthier and more sustainable food system. Yet labor is rarely part of the discussion.
In Will Work for Food, Laura-Anne Minkoff-Zern and Teresa Mares chronicle labor across the food chain, connecting the entire food system—from fields to stores, restaurants, home kitchens, and even garbage dumps. Using a political economy framework, the authors argue that improving labor standards and building solidarity among frontline workers across sectors is necessary for creating a more just food system. What would it take, they ask, to move toward a food system that is devoid of human exploitation? Combining insights from food systems and labor justice scholarship with actionable recommendations for policy makers, the book is a call to action for labor activists, food studies students and scholars, and anyone interested in food justice.
