This book examines the experiences of seasonal, migrant sugarcane
workers in Brazil, analyzing the deep-seated inequalities pervasive
in contemporary Brazil. Education, employment, income, health, and
relative political power are forefront in this study of the living
and working conditions of the transient population. Based on ten
years of qualitative research dominated by in-depth interviews with
migrant sugarcane workers, this project argues that the ills of the
sugarcane industry are symptomatic of an overarching problem of
unequal access to opportunities by all Brazilian citizens. The
project is unique in its use of a single industry as an expression
of the multifarious problems of socioeconomic, regional, and racial
inequality. The author explores details of the labor migration
experience with a central premise that the conditions are not a
direct outcome of the industry, but rather a manifestation of
fundamental inequalities rooted in Brazil's colonial history.
