Category:Collaborative Economy
The Introduction to the P2P Foundation Wiki Material about the Collaborative Economy compiled by Michel Bauwens gives a wide selection of references, typologies, and links to other articles.
It is difficult to define the concept of the Collaborative Economy in any precise way (see: Collaborative Economy - Concept), so this section has very broad source material about the connection between economic practice and collaborative practice; the concept emerged in the years 2012-2013, and peaked in 2016.
See also our Category: Sharing (concept: Sharing Economy) which is about more specific practices where previously idle resources are shared and exchanged over platforms.
