This book is an outcome of three years of research on the different
aspects of digital and platform work in this era of the platform
economy. Over its 10 chapters, the volume takes an interdisciplinary
approach, in which philosophy, economics, psychology, social psychology,
sociology, education sciences, and public health are used and combined
for analyzing the dimensions of digital work in the platform era. Based
on both primary and secondary materials and sources, in-depth analyses
of both qualitative and quantitative data, and several types of
fieldwork materials, including seminars and policy briefs, the authors
analyze the many current features of a working life where digitalization
and new phenomena such as platform work are emerging. The common
denominator for all chapters is examining the different facets of work
in the era of digitalization and the platform economy.
