This article examines global agrifood chains from a perspective that links economic activity to sociocultural transformations in the social sphere—often categorized as private and independent of the economic domain. Specifically, the study examines the relations established between recruitment policies, work, and sexuality in the intensive cultivation of strawberries in Andalusia, Spain. Taking a feminist political economy and intersectional approach, the ethnographic analysis centers on sexuality in socio-labor spaces in the context of the policies to recruit quotas of women from their home countries on temporary contracts. The analysis starts by exploring the way that the changing recruitment criteria of the Spanish temporary farmworker program define the ideal woman worker and how sexuality is constructed in social representations and relations. The analysis then shows how the sexualization of temporary women workers from eastern Europe is constructed through comparisons of the various groups of workers (Polish, Romanian, Romani, Moroccan, and Andalusian). In the final section, the study examines the articulation of contradictory representations of sexuality and behavior with systems of control.

全球农产品链中的一环

本文从将经济活动与社会领域中的社会文化变革联系起来的角度审视了全球农产品链——通常被归类为私人领域，独立于经济领域。具体来说，该研究考察了西班牙安达卢西亚草莓集约种植中招聘政策、工作和性行为之间建立的关系。采用女权主义政治经济学和交叉方法，民族志分析以社会劳动空间中的性行为为中心，在政策背景下以临时合同从本国招募妇女配额。分析首先探索西班牙临时农场工人计划不断变化的招聘标准如何定义理想的女工，以及性行为是如何在社会表征和关系中构建的。然后，分析显示了东欧临时女工的性化是如何通过对不同工人群体（波兰人、罗马尼亚人、罗姆人、摩洛哥人和安达卢西亚人）的比较来构建的。在最后一部分，该研究检查了性和行为的矛盾表征与控制系统的表达方式。
