  • Description: This special issue of the 'Journal of Australian Political Economy' is the product of a research collaboration project between University of California Davis and University of Sydney on temporary migrant workers in agriculture. Workshops were held in Sydney in February and Davis in April 2019, and several of the papers published in this issue had their origin in presentations delivered at the Sydney workshop. The project was prompted by the evidence that the agricultural industry in most high-income countries had become increasingly reliant on the employment of temporary migrant workers and that, almost without exception, the industry’s reputation was sullied by a history of migrant workers being subjected to a raft of exploitative practices.
