The emergence of new forms of organizing it brings with it has affected modern (business) life at multiple levels: Sharing organizations have blurred the distinction between the individual roles of provider, user, and employee; they have introduced organizational practices of coordinating members and communities; and they have sparked societal, political, and economic debates in multiple fields. These dynamics at the individual, organizational, and field level provide an opportunity for organization scholars to take stock of and theorize the sharing economy. This volume takes advantage of this opportunity by presenting a collection of empirical and conceptual work that explores the variety and the trajectories of new forms of organizing in the sharing economy, and in doing so builds on, rejuvenates, and refines existing organization theories. Together, the chapters included in this volume offer a comprehensive overview of theoretically grounded research that deepens our understanding of new forms of organizing and indicates future avenues for research.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 229mmItem Length: 152mmItem Weight: 491gContributor: Indre Maurer (Edited by), Johanna Mair (Edited by), Achim Oberg (Edited by)Genre: Society & CultureTopic: Social Sciences, Business & FinanceBook Series: Research in the Sociology of OrganizationsAuthor: Achim ObergRelease Year: 2020 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
