A couple of weeks ago we uploaded the first projekt//raum working paper:
Ecker, Yannick, Le Bon, Manon & Sophie Emrich (2018): race against the machine – the effects of digitalization on the working conditions and the organization of labor struggles. An empirical study on the online delivery companies Deliveroo and Foodora in Berlin. In: projekt//raum working papers #1. Download: https://projektraum.noblogs.org/projektraum-workingpaper-1/ .
The results can also be transferred to similar examples such as Lieferando which are currently building up their own delivery services.
