Description

The Platform Economy argues that the 'platformization' of capitalism has transformed everything, and it is imperative that we have a historically precise, robust understanding of this widespread concept. Taking Japan as the key site for global platformization, Marc Steinberg delves into that nation's unique technological and managerial trajectory, in the process systematically examining every facet of the elusive word platform.
