Zusammenfassung: | The "gig economy" is a relatively recent term coined to describe a range of working arrangements that have previously been denoted as precarious, flexible and contingent. Borrowed from musicians, a "gig" describes a one-night performance, but in the context of general employment, it covers the self-employed who work for hire, those on temporary, short-term contracts and on zero-hours contracts. In this concise overview, Alex de Ruyter and Martyn Brown explain the key facets of the gig economy and explore the dangers and potential it affords. Drawing on recent case-studies from the UK, Europe and the USA, it offers an authoritative guide through the theories and issues that surround the gig economy. |

Newcastle upon Tyne : Agenda Publishing, 2019. ©2019 1 online resource (v, 106 pages) : illustrations text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier The economy key ideas Includes bibliographic references and index. Description based on online resource, title from digital title page (viewed on August 12, 2020). The "gig economy" is a relatively recent term coined to describe a range of working arrangements that have previously been denoted as precarious, flexible and contingent. Borrowed from musicians, a "gig" describes a one-night performance, but in the context of general employment, it covers the self-employed who work for hire, those on temporary, short-term contracts and on zero-hours contracts. In this concise overview, Alex de Ruyter and Martyn Brown explain the key facets of the gig economy and explore the dangers and potential it affords. Drawing on recent case-studies from the UK, Europe and the USA, it offers an authoritative guide through the theories and issues that surround the gig economy. Introduction -- Theorizing the gig economy -- Working in the gig economy: international trends -- Regulation and lived experience of the gig economy -- Conclusions and implications: from wage economy to gig economy to automated ("no") economy.
