Description:
AbstractThis paper introduces the concept of the Southern Model of broiler production as the preferred organizational form in the global agrifood system. A synthesis of existing works on the broiler industry combined with new information documenting its global diffusion is used to develop the concept of the Southern Model. The analysis of events supports a flexible accumulation over flexible specialization interpretation of the globalization of the Southern Model. The investigation of the historical development and diffusion of the Southern Model warrants special attention from researchers concerned with the socioeconomic implications of the global restructuring of the agrifood system.
