Course Description
The platform is the dominant business model of digitization. The most successful companies in the world like Google, Amazon or Facebook, but also many tech startups, are platforms. However, the often acclaimed model brings with it a series of problematic developments: the undermining of labor standards, economic concentration of power and monopolization, new threats to privacy and autonomy. The class first takes a theoretical approach to this topic and then examines alternative concepts and case studies. Finally, students develop their own project ideas. These can range from ideas for a platform cooperative to alternative data governance concepts all the way to new strategies for industrial action and social movements.
