245 _aVili Lehdonvirta. cloud empires: How digital platforms are overtaking the state and how we can regain control
260 _aAdministrative Science Quarterly
300 _a69(2), Jun, 2024: p.NP22- NP24
520 _aLehdonvirta’s book begins with a captivating juxtaposition: the growing parallels between major internet-based platforms and traditional states or governments. From a governance perspective, these platforms and the state are increasingly converging in their functions, especially in how both facilitate various economic exchanges and labor market operations. Lehdonvirta aptly dubs these platforms “states without estates; empires in the cloud” (p. 213), highlighting the intriguing nature of this comparison.- Reproduced https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/00018392231217403
