Still need to process so much knowledge, the great insights and debates as much as the emotions remembering the giant, the master, the friend Alessandro Pizzorno at the @scuolanormale...but in a great company

Benché la partecipazione democratica abbia bisogno di risorse e nel suo realizzarsi ne consumi anche molte, non può essere ridotta né a una merce, né a un bene consumabile. Di @ChestaEmilio. equilibrimagazine.it/societa/2023/1…

@TimChristiaens5 @lordcini @CritSoc Thanks for the careful review and the comments Tim!

My review of Labour Conflicts in the Digital Age by @lordcini, @ChestaEmilio and Donatella Della Porta is online on @CritSoc. In sum, for anyone interested in the dynamics of labour struggles in the gig economy, this is an excellent overview. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/08…
