具體描述
Silicon Valley technology is transforming the way we work, and Uber is leading the charge. An American startup that promised to deliver entrepreneurship for the masses through its technology, Uber instead built a new template for employment using algorithms and Internet platforms. Upending our understanding of work in the digital age, Uberland paints a future where any of us might be managed by a faceless boss.
The neutral language of technology masks the powerful influence algorithms have across the New Economy. Uberland chronicles the stories of drivers in more than twenty-five cities in the United States and Canada over four years, shedding light on their working conditions and providing a window into how they feel behind the wheel. The book also explores Uber’s outsized influence around the world: the billion-dollar company is now influencing everything from debates about sexual harassment and transportation regulations to racial equality campaigns and labor rights initiatives.
Based on award-winning technology ethnographer Alex Rosenblat’s firsthand experience of riding over 5,000 miles with Uber drivers, daily visits to online forums, and face-to-face discussions with senior Uber employees, Uberland goes beyond the headlines to reveal the complicated politics of popular technologies that are manipulating both workers and consumers.
用戶評價
公眾嚮的ethnography，有趣的是話題，是對emerging technologies嘗試著敲敲打打的勇氣，但是寫著寫著就淪為“故事會”式的故事閤集瞭，作為work的定義呢？理論框架呢？normative claim感覺也要我自己猜瞭==略失望啊。寫公眾嚮的科技社會影響的文本是否改在理論厚度上作齣多少讓步呢？第一年的思考問題。
評分##3.5星，還可以吧。確實是材料都有瞭，普通論述也有，但理論性不強（或者說基本不存在）。總的來說還是對Uber的全麵批判，如果有理論支撐的話作為學術作品會更加堅實，現在看起來就是深度不夠。不過我還是enjoy reading it瞭。
評分##要警惕技術時代以技術為幌子的資本壓榨
評分##The basic logic of sharing economy (of Uber): use marketing to sugarcoat labor disposability and allure more disposable labors; use consumer narrative to dodge responsibility, use algorithms management to exploit laborer
評分##從勞工角度寫科技産業發展過程中的一係列問題。體係感太差瞭，基本上就是堆材料吧，不必看完。三星半。

評分##同意故事會的評價…… 2.5 takeaway: 1/5 contingent labour 2/5 digital communications networks in society 3/5 algorithmic management of tech companies 4/5 definition of work in the digital age 5/5 technologies ain't netural
