Online social networks have made sharing personal experiences with others a common activity. Furthermore, modern mobile apps, cloud services, and wearable technologies expanded the scope of shared content on the internet from personal media to individual preferences and activities to information about real-world things. This book explores these practices within two emergent sharing contexts: personal activity tracking and “sharing economy” services. It should be of interest not only to interaction design researchers who are critically examining technology-mediated sharing practices through fieldwork studies and design practitioners who are building and evaluating sharing economy platforms, but also to readers who are curious to explore the diversity of sharing practices in our everyday lives.

This open access book considers the development of the sharing and collaborative economy with a European focus, mapping across economic sectors, and country-specific case studies. It looks at the roles the sharing economy plays in sharing and redistribution of goods and services across the population in order to maximise their functionality, monetary exchange, and other aspects important to societies. It also looks at the place of the sharing economy among various policies and how the contexts of public policies, legislation, digital platforms, and other infrastructure interrelate with the development and function of the sharing economy. The book will help in understanding the future (sharing) economy models as well as to contribute in solving questions of better access to resources and sustainable innovation in the context of degrowth and growing inequalities within and between societies. It will also provide a useful source for solutions to the big challenges of our times such as climate change, the loss of biodiversity, and recently the coronavirus disease pandemic (COVID-19). This book will be of interest to academics and students in economics and business, organisational studies, sociology, media and communication and computer science.

Over the past years, the emergence of a “new” economy has disrupted the codes of current consumption models, threatening traditional businesses’ approaches. This economy also known as collaborative economy, allows consumers to access a series of goods and services provided by other individuals in exchange for a fee. This process is done through an online 'matching' platform anticipated by the collaborative firm. Companies such as Uber, Deliveroo, Blablacar or Airbnb to are examples of business models amidst others that are trying to gain competitive advantage in this booming market.
This emergence is explained by the development of new technologies (e.g., web 2.0, ICTs, mobile technology, etc.) and by the influence of new economic (e.g., burdens of ownership, economic uncertainty, entrepreneurial motivations, etc.), social/cultural (e.g., collective interest, reaction to hyper-consumption, etc.) and ecological (e.g., waste problems, pollution concerns, etc.) issues that have affected our current society and its mind set. Consumers of collaborative consumption are motivated primarily by economic, moral and social interests, and because this mode of consumption gives them some flexibility.
Nevertheless, the chances of success of companies that take part in this economy is relatively minimal as many start-ups have failed. One of the major causes is the difficulty of companies to attract and retain their two key customers; consumers and individual suppliers. In order to respond to this obstacle, this study investigated the customers’ reasons for rejecting this innovation. Based on the theory of resistance to innovation (Hazée et al., 2017, Talke and Heidenreich, 2014), we analysed the online comments of both actors towards some collaborative firms via the critical incidents technique (CIT). The result is a double schema describing the barriers perceived on the one hand, by service providers, and on the other hand, by consumers. The barriers identified are then explained and discussed as they could potentially help managers to increase acceptance of their innovation and to overcome people’s perceived barriers towards collaborative consumption. Equally, this schema helps them figure what negative and positive balances effects a new measure would bring to the barriers of both players.

The « Uber phenomenon » is the perfect case for a comparative law study : a global phenomenon, impacting almost every country, causing massive disruption of local monopolies and raising many of the same legal questions worldwide. In most countries, taxi companies have long enjoyed monopolies amidst strictly regulated markets. Uber’s emergence, combined with the development of a new economic model based on innovative technological tools, has profoundly impacted the industry. It all happened very fast. Uber launched operations in 2009 in the United States and, within a few years, has changed the face of the taxi industry throughout the world. The purpose of this book is to explain how various legal systems reacted and adapted to the disruption caused by the emergence of this new economic model. It is a book about economic regulation, it focuses on how the law regulates – more or less strictly – the actions of economic entities. This book is the collective work of an amazing team of authors – all academics in law or lawyers – from around the world and representing twenty-two countries, namely Argentina, Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, China, Colombia, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Japan, Lithuania, Poland, Portugal, the Netherlands, Spain, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the United States
