Individuals all over the world can use Airbnb to rent an apartment in a foreign city,
check Coursera to find a course on statistics, join PatientsLikeMe to exchange information
about one's disease, hail a cab using Uber, or read the news through Facebook's Instant
Articles. The promise of connective platforms is that they offer personalized services
and contribute to innovation and economic growth, while bypassing cumbersome institutional
or industrial overhead. In The Platform Society, Van Dijck, Poell and De Waal offer
a comprehensive analysis of a connective world where platforms have penetrated the
heart of societies-disrupting markets and labor relations, circumventing institutions,
transforming social and civic practices and affecting democratic processes. This book
questions what role online platforms play in the organization of Western societies.
First, how do platform mechanisms work and to what effect are they deployed? Second,
how can platforms incorporate public values and benefit the public good?
