Conclusions and Policies. . 330 $aThis book tackles the concept of openness (as in open source software, open access and free culture), from a critical political economy perspective to consider its encroachment by capitalist corporations, but also how it advances radical alternatives to cognitive capitalism. Drawing on four case studies, Corporate Capitalism?s Use of Openness will add to discussion on open source software, open access content platforms, open access publishing, and open university courses. These otherwise disparate cases share two fundamental features: informational capitalist corporations base their successful business models on unpaid productive activities, play, attention, knowledge and labour, and do so crucially by resorting to ideological uses of concepts such as ?openness?, ?communities? and ?sharing?. The authors present potential solutions and alternative regulations to counter these exploitative and alienating business models, and to foster digital knowledge commons, ranging from co-ops and commons-based peer production to state agencies' platforms. Their research and findings will appeal to students, academics and activists around the world in fields such as sociology, economy, media and communication, library and information science, political sciences and technology studies. 410 0$aDynamics of Virtual Work 606 $aIndustrial organization 606 $aEconomic sociology 606 $aIndustrial sociology 606 $aMass media 606 $aCommunication 606 $aIndustrial Organization$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W31010 606 $aOrganizational Studies, Economic Sociology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22020 606 $aSociology of Work$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22240 606 $aMedia Sociology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22110 615 0$aIndustrial organization. 615 0$aEconomic sociology. 615 0$aIndustrial sociology. 615 0$aMass media. 615 0$aCommunication. 615 14$aIndustrial Organization. 615 24$aOrganizational Studies, Economic Sociology. 615 24$aSociology of Work. 615 24$aMedia Sociology. 676 $a658.408 676 $a338.6 700 $aLund$b Arwid$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0935183 702 $aZukerfeld$b Mariano$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910380744203321 996 $aCorporate Capitalism's Use of Openness$92106197 997 $aUNINA
