[Air-L] New book: Wikipedia, Work and Capitalism

[Arwid Lund]

Hi!

This could be of interest to some of you.

My book Wikipedia, Work and Capitalism (Palgrave Macmillan) has finally been published online (the hardcover will be out within weeks). It situates Wikipedia and peer production within a Marxist perspective on cognitive capitalism, and uses ideology analysis to study the Wikipedians' perceptions of their own activities as well as their understanding of the project's relation to capitalism.

If it sounds interesting you can have a look here: http://www.springer.com/gb/book/9783319506890?wt_mc=ThirdParty.SpringerLink.3.EPR653.About_eBook#

All the best,
