Putting the sharing economy into perspective

Koen Frenken, Juliet B. Schor · January 22, 2017 · Business and Management

Abstract

We develop a conceptual framework that allows us to define the sharing economy and its close cousins and we understand its sudden rise from an economic-historic perspective. We then assess the sharing economy platforms in terms of the economic, social and environmental impacts. We end with reflections on current regulations and future alternatives, and suggest a number of future research questions.
