Platform Capitalism is a high definition snapshot of the current political economic situation than manages to get a lot of detail into a tight frame. It offers a convincing image of the current stage of capitalist development as a series of variations on the theme of the platform as a means of consolidating or seizing a kind of monopoly leverage over not only distribution but also production. Srnicek gives good reasons for thinking the platform moment in capital accumulation might be less all-conquering than it looks?

写的很坦诚,言简意赅,观点鲜明
评分本学期目前读着最顺的一本
评分对于political economy without aesthetics的书真是难以打起精神,像马克思和哈维就好很多,Tadiar那种就很喜欢了。这本书其实蛮好,如果有什么critique也就是觉得他对于extraction of data以及platform capitalism的描述非常的humanistic,即大部分还是停留在production和ownership的层面上……
评分作者可能太年轻了吧,才33岁写的书。像本商业评论综述。把产业里早已熟悉的操作科普给学术界的感觉。要不怎么说学界常常慢了不止半拍.....
