The penetration of digital technology into all aspects of life is no better represented then in the adjustment of work arrangements through the sharing economy. A sometimes-misunderstood term, the sharing economy is a system of peer-to-peer exchanges or rentals facilitated through a digital intermediary. Often associated with the ride-sharing company Uber, many goods and services can be provided through similar platforms, such as meal, shopping and food delivery, personal assistants, contingent workforce, and Internet-based scheduling. Closely intertwined with the sharing economy is an expansion of gig and freelance work. While these short-term or one-time work arrangements are not new, the sharing economy platform allows for a greater number of people to find gig or freelance work. These platforms allow increased access to services and workers in ways not seen before. This carefully-researched book covers exciting trends in the business of the sharing and gig economy, freelance workers, and on-demand delivery. This reference tool includes thorough market analysis as well as our highly respected trends analysis.
