The Elgar Companion to Regulating Platform Work
Multidisciplinary in scope, The Elgar Companion to Regulating Platform Work comprehensively analyses the dynamics and trends of the app-based food delivery sector in the platform economy. Adopting a comparative approach, it examines the regulatory developments in the field at EU level and beyond.
Are platform workers willing to unionize?
This study contributes to the understanding of unionization in the platform economy, both in terms of membership rates among different groups of platform workers and the potential for unionization among those who are not yet members. The findings are based on a unique cross-national and comparative survey, dedicated to the analysis of various forms of digitally-mediated work and trade union-related behaviour, which allows for an explicit link bet…
Varieties of platform unionism
Nearly three decades ago, Manuel Castells declared the atomising effects of the new technologies of the ‘information age’ to presage the ‘end of labour’. There is little doubt that the labour movement worldwide is no longer the social force it was in the twentieth century. Much of the debate on the future of work and consequences for worker organisation, moreover, has focused on defensive struggles against the introduction of new technologies in …
Applauded ‘nightingales’ voicing discontent. Exploring labour unrest in health and social care in Europe before and since the Covid-19 pandemic
A Modern Guide To Labour and the Platform Economy
To what extent are the organisational work practices of digital labour platforms really new and to what extent do they differ from previous changes enabled by information and communication technologies? Two periods are considered in this chapter. The first one can be characterized as the expansion of online digital services, from the preparation of the European Single Market in late 1980s to the bursting of the dot-com bubble in 2000-01. The seco…

Dutch Herring
Dutch Herring
In the seventeenth century, the Dutch herring fisheries in the North Sea were considered the most sophisticated and demanding fishing operation in the world. This is the first study to assess the North Sea herring and herring fisheries over the span of several centuries. It contributes to the understanding of pre-modern natural resource exploitation and the role of the natural environment in long-term development of the Dutch herring fisheries.
Cultural Styles of Knowledge Transmission
Driving Europe
Today we can hardly imagine life in Europe without roads and the automobiles that move people and goods around. In fact, the vast majority of movement in Europe takes place on the road. Travelers use the car to explore parts of the continent on their holidays, and goods travel large distances to reach consumers. Indeed, the twentieth century has deservedly been characteried as the century of the car. The situation looked very different around 190…
Cultural styles of knowledge transmission
Anthropologist Ad Borsboom devoted his academic career from 1972 onwards to the transmission of cultural knowledge. Borsboom handed the insights he acquired during many years of fieldwork among Australian Aborigines on to other academics, students, and the general public. This collection of essays by his colleagues, specializing in cultures from across the globe, focuses on knowledge transmission. The contributions deal with local forms of educat…
