How is the sharing economy field structured? Dominika Wruk, Tino Schöllhorn and Achim Oberg address this question in their current publication
08.04.20
In their exploratory study, the platforms2share researchers find that sharing organizations receive attention, resources and legitimation from a „disruptive field“ of organizations including tech-media and venture capitalists – a field that initiates and support technological innovation which potentially disrupt existing fields and industries. So far, the field pays attention to dominant models in the sharing economy such as Airbnb or Uber. The authors published the chapter in the renowned series „Research in the Sociology of Organizations“.

Wie ist das Feld der Sharing Economy strukturiert? Dieser Frage gehen Dominika Wruk, Tino Schöllhorn und Achim Oberg in ihrer aktuellen Veröffentlichung nach
06.04.20
In Ihrer explorativen Studie zum Feld der Sharing Economy finden die ForscherInnen heraus, dass Sharing Organisationen Legitimation und Ressourcen von einem „Disruptiven Feld“ an Organisationen (z.B. Tech-Medien, Venture Capitalists) erhalten, die technologische Innovationen anstoßen und stärken und damit bestehende Industrien und Felder disruptieren. Bisher schenkt dieses Feld insbesondere dominanten Sharing Organisationen (z.B. Airbnb, Uber) Aufmerksamkeit. Die Autoren veröffentlichen das Kapitel in der renommierten Serie „Research in the Sociology of Organizations“.

How are sharing organizations’ business models linked to values?
05.11.19
Dominika Wruk from platforms2share together with her co-authors Achim Oberg, Jennifer Klutt & Indre Maurer developed an approach to analyze how business models and values are linked. Applying this approach in the context of the sharing economy, they found two strategies to link models and values: Grassrots initiatives mainly address sustainability values while platform-based organizations mainly address economic values. It will be interesting to see, whether platform cooperatives represent a hybrid model by linking a platform business model to sustainability values.
