In Bracero 2.0, Philip Martin draws on decades of research and experience to explore the role of rural Mexicans in North American agriculture, alternatives to hand workers, and policies to improve farm worker protections. Martin assesses the historical and current demand for and supply of farm labor, and the operation of the farm labor market in Canada, Mexico, and the US. He also uses statistical and survey data to provide the most reliable portrait of the five million people who work for wages on North American farms.
