Abstract

caveat that the book is successful in establishing is, that this is easier said than done, especially in an industry where there is a lot of variability when it comes to age, background, and even pay (whole or partial source of income). Overall, this book does succeed in providing creative, rigorous, valuable and important empirical insights through its thought-provoking combination of empirical and legal analyses by academics and observers or participants in the gig economy. The noteworthy strengths of the book are its multifaceted treatment of gig work, the interdisciplinary approach, and the plethora of references to news outlets, signalising how widespread and socially present this phenomenon is. The book is written in an understandable manner and is very informative, comprehensive and of high quality, enriching the discussion on gig economy. The book is particularly relevant for researchers, social partners and policymakers that are seeking comparative information, but is recommended also to a wider range of readers, interested in understanding a bit about the work lives of the people who comprise the gig economy in the US.
书评:Bent Greve的《紧缩、民粹主义与福利国家手册》
需要注意的是,这本书的成功之处在于,这说起来容易做起来难,尤其是在一个年龄、背景甚至薪酬(全部或部分收入来源)都存在很大差异的行业。总的来说,这本书确实成功地提供了创造性的、严谨的、有价值的和重要的实证见解,通过学者、观察者或零工经济参与者的发人深省的实证和法律分析的结合。这本书值得注意的优势在于它对零工的多方面处理,跨学科的方法,以及对新闻媒体的大量引用,表明这种现象是多么普遍和社会存在。这本书以一种可以理解的方式写作,内容丰富,全面,质量高,丰富了对零工经济的讨论。对于寻求比较信息的研究人员、社会合作伙伴和政策制定者来说,这本书尤为重要,但它也推荐给更广泛的读者,这些读者有兴趣了解美国零工经济(gig economy)的组成部分的工作生活。
