This article explores the use of immigrant workers in segmented labor markets typical of flexible capitalism in rural areas. Rural Studies have contributed a perspective of spatial entrapment and spatially contingent job markets. We emphasize supply-side processes and the role of these processes in the linkage between immigrant workers and labor markets segmentation in rural areas. We develop this argument by integratin conceptualizations of class, ethnicity, gender and the experience of place. Finally, we show how ethnicity is a key factor of vulnerability in the new rural economy and its labor markets. Immigrant workers are often concentrated in rural regions that share histories of extreme class stratification and political disenfranchisement created by both legal and extra-legal discrimination and exploitation.
