Network Society and Future Scenarios for a Collaborative Economy (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book builds on the idea that peer-to-peer infrastructures are gradually becoming the general conditions of work, economy, and society. Using a four-scenario approach, the authors seek to simplify possible outcomes and to explore relevant trajectories of the current techno-economic paradigm within and beyond capitalism.
