520    "Much of the produce that Americans eat is grown in the 
       Mexican state of Baja California, the site of a multi-
       billion dollar export agricultural boom that has generated
       jobs and purportedly reduced poverty and labor migration 
       to the U.S. But how has this growth affected those living 
       there? Based on a decade of ethnographic fieldwork, Made 
       in Baja examines the unforeseen consequences for residents
       in the region of San Quintín, including the tripling of 
       its population; mushrooming precarious colonia communities
       lacking basic infrastructure and services; and turbulent 
       struggles for labor, civic, and political rights. 
       Anthropologist Christian Zlolniski reveals the effects of 
       growers structuring the industry around an insatiable 
       demand for fresh fruits and vegetables. He also 
       investigates the ecological damage--'watercide'--and the 
       social side effects of exploiting natural resources for 
       agricultural production. Weaving together stories from 
       both farmworkers and growers, Made in Baja provides an eye
       -opening look at the dynamic economy developing south of 
       the border"--Provided by publisher.
