Zusammenfassung: | "Sharing is central to how we live today: it is what we do online; it is a model of economic behavior; and it is also a type of therapeutic talk. Sharing always comes with a warm glow around it, embodying positive values such as empathy, communication, fairness, openness and equality. The Age of Sharing shows how and when sharing became caring, and explains how its meanings have changed in the digital age. Sharing, though, is also a word used to camouflage commercial or even exploitive relations, leading many to bemoan that ‘It isn’t really sharing’. Websites say they share data with advertisers, though actually they sell it, while parts of the sharing economy look much like rental services. But The Age of Sharing ultimately argues that practices described as sharing and critiques of those practices have common roots. Consequently, the powerful metaphor of sharing now constructs significant swathes of our social practices and provides the grounds for critiquing them; it is a mode of participation in the capitalist order and a way of resisting it.

The word “sharing” has become so ubiquitous that we rarely stop to inquire
into its meanings, let alone the ideological work it does in the diverse contexts
of its use. John’s engaging historical analysis of “sharing” across three
domains is essential reading, offering deep insight into the implicit values
that shape our interactions and economies.’
Nancy Baym, Principal Researcher at Microsoft Research
‘The Age of Sharing is an insightful and careful excavation of the concept
of sharing both material and immaterial things. It broadly interrogates the
practices of primates and early humans, as well as the latest social media
and “sharing” apps, for clues about our basic human nature.’
Russell Belk, Schulich School of Business, York University
Sharing is central to how we live today: it is what we do online; it is a model of
economic behaviour; and it is also a type of therapeutic talk. Sharing embodies
positive values such as empathy, communication, fairness, openness and
equality. The Age of Sharing shows how and when sharing became caring,
and explains how its meanings have changed in the digital age.
But the word ‘sharing’ also camouflages commercial or even exploitative
relations. Websites say they share data with advertisers, although in reality
they sell it, while parts of the sharing economy look a great deal like rental
services. Ultimately, it is argued, practices described as sharing and critiques
of those practices have common roots. Consequently, the metaphor of sharing
now constructs significant swathes of our social practices and provides the
grounds for critiquing them; it is a mode of participation in the capitalist order
as well as a way of resisting it.
Drawing on nineteenth-century literature, Alcoholics Anonymous, the
American counterculture, reality TV, hackers, Airbnb, Facebook and more,
The Age of Sharing offers a rich account of a complex contemporary
keyword. It will appeal to students and scholars of the internet, digital culture
and linguistics.
Nicholas A. John is Assistant Professor in the Department of Communication
