Abstract :
[en] The paper analyses peasant livelihood strategies and the associated processes of social differentiation in Pedro Moncayo (Ecuador), a territory starkly influenced by the presence of the cut flower agribusiness. Beside two types of semi-peasants’ livelihoods, numerous semi-proletariat livelihood strategies dependent on flower-based wage income have appeared. These hybrid forms of production and social reproduction reflect different strategies to negotiate the tensions between dependence and autonomy from capitalist circuits of agrarian accumulation as peasantries are confronted with the agri-food globalization.
