Through a case study of the Asoquimad association in Madrid, Cundinamarca, the article identifies a series of territorial determinants that underlie the employment history of women who seek, in peri-urban scenarios, to transit from working in the floriculture agroindustry to cooperative work in small-scale agroecological and solidarity economies. The case illustrates how global, regional, and local dynamics intersect in the delimitation of the labor options these women have access to in a context of transformation and dispute of what “the rural” is. The reading of the constraints faced by women enables a deeper understanding of labor as well as of its specific articulations with peri-urban transformations.enHumanitiesPolitical scienceGeographySociologyarticle
