This book provides critical perspectives on contemporary collaborative consumption, a recent societal phenomenon shaking up previously fixed socio-economic categories such as the producer and the consumer. The contributors discuss the role of trust and reciprocity in collaborative consumption through seven case studies. The chapters advance debates on the contradictions of positioning collaborative consumption as possible solutions for a more sustainable development and exacerbating new forms of inequalities and injustice. The book contributes a nuanced appraisal of social and economic activity for reflecting socio-technological changes in contemporary societies.

In this chapter, I argue that to build an appropriate framework for understanding collaborative consumption in its contemporary form, we need to consider the deep and nuanced literature on human cooperation as well as work specific to modern sharing systems. Though it is beyond the scope of this chapter to provide an exhaustive discussion, snapshots from leading thinkers in multiple traditions allow us to conceptualize modern collaborative consumption systems and offer predictions about their optimal design and trajectory. At the same time, this review highlights the failure of any one perspective to address completely the dynamics of contemporary collaborative consumption. As such, collaborative consumption presents a rich opportunity to apply consumer psychology's multidisciplinary perspective in a domain of theoretical and practical importance.

The introduction of new technology and technological services worldwide has ushered in a new wave of peer-to-peer and access-driven companies that are disrupting the most established business categories. The emergence of these new business models has upset the flow in contemporary society and transformed people's behavior towards sharing-based economies. Companies and entrepreneurs can see this significant change in people’s behavior as both an opportunity and a threat. Sharing Economy and the Impact of Collaborative Consumption provides emerging research on the impact that the sharing services are having on society as well as the importance of the sharing economy development in the coming years, dealing with relevant issues such as regulations, the technological aspects involved in these platforms, the impact in the tourism sector, and consumer behavior in relation to these services. Multidisciplinary in nature, this publication establishes links between economics, finance, marketing, consumer behavior, and IT, and covers topics that include e-commerce, consumer behavior, and peer economy. It is ideally designed for researchers, students, business professionals, and entrepreneurs seeking current research on the impact that this industry has on various economic, marketing, and societal aspects of different countries.

This paper aims to develop necessary criteria to design Triple Bottom Line-compliant Collaborative Consumption Systems. In order to do so, and in consideration of the nascent state of the sharing industry research domain, the dominating confusion regarding specific definitional aspects of inherent concepts needs to be alleviated. A comparative analysis of the three most prominent terms, Collaborative Consumption, Sharing Economy, and Collaborative Economy has resulted in a contemporary definition of the Collaborative Economy as Internet technology- enabled P2P platforms that coordinate for-profit transactions of underutilized tangible and intangible goods, as well as services in Production, Consumption, Finance and Education, all while creating meaningful relationships. The Collaborative Economy incorporates Collaborative Consumption and the Sharing Economy as synonyms. They are defined as Internet technology- enabled P2P platforms that coordinate for-profit transactions of underutilized tangible and intangible goods, as well as services with an aim of personal consumption, all while creating meaningful relationships. A subsequent analysis of governing institutions of Collaborative Consumption has laid the groundwork for a possible case selection and considerations in the second part of the paper. This second part has proposed the sustainable engagement of participants and the sustainable management of underlying goods as the two necessary conditions for Collaborative Consumption Systems to be successful below the Triple Bottom Line. Three discussions, regarding business model prerequisites, marketing-related considerations, and governance frameworks respectively, are the carrying pillars of the development of such criteria. The conclusion has maintained the inability of either discussion to devise general evaluation criteria, because of their dependency on industry and activity specificities. Such criteria demand case-by-case d.

This dynamic book explores the importance of collaborative consumption; which is particularly relevant at a time when the sharing economy has established itself as part of the mainstream market. Nearly 40 expert scholars across the globe go beyond the existing literature to investigate understudied community efforts and spaces, including innovative topics such as hand-me-downs and coworking. Championing an interdisciplinary approach, Understanding Collaborative Consumption follows a detailed framework to dissect its role within the sharing economy. Setting out a schema for understanding collaborative consumption and its paradoxes, it analyses the role of the consumer and provides an exploration of grassroots and community efforts. Contributors discuss platformed and branded efforts to extend the reciprocity based market, and conclude with an appraisal of negative externalities and emerging trends. Providing an in-depth examination of a sector that has in recent years rapidly grown in scope and breadth, this book will be a crucial read for academics and researchers of business management, marketing and sociology. It will also prove valuable to students and scholars interested in economic entrepreneurship, branding and the sharing economy.

Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2011 in the subject Business economics - Offline Marketing and Online Marketing, grade: 1,0, Northeastern University of Boston, language: English, abstract: The objective of this paper is to analyze the emergence and the characteristics of collaborative consumption. Moreover, this paper examines the causes and underlying motivations for using Couchsurfing as one particular form of collaborative consumption by focusing on consumers. Lastly, we will provide potential implications of this trend for commercial organizations. In recent years economic life has changed more radically than in the past century altogether. Consumers and firms are getting away from the typical capitalistic principle of “buyers” and “sellers”. The new economies are rather defined by “users” and “suppliers”. Ownership, which was the underlying principle of decades of capitalism is not desirable anymore as it is “(..) considered outdated and out of place (..)” (Rifkin 2000, p. 5). Nowadays, firms are outsourcing and leasing cars, electronics and even people. It is just not important to own things anymore, but simply to have access to resources. Product life-cycles are becoming shorter and shorter and especially electronic goods are almost outdated shortly after their release. Therefore, companies need to be flexible and react quickly. The principle of ownership can just not fulfil the requirements of an ever-changing and fast-paced economy (Rifkin 2000). While consumers are still more reluctant towards this trend, they are picking up on it. Car-sharing or bike-sharing, for example, is becoming more and more popular in order to (simply) save money and thus replace traditional ways of just buying goods. Furthermore, people are increasingly aware of their (negotiation) power. Groupon, for instance , is only able to offer all these “blockbuster discounts” because there is a huge mass of people behind (it) to “negotiate” big bargains. The rise of the internet and modern communication is an important building block of developing this kind of network economy. Without modern communication it is just impossible to coordinate a network economy and to identify suppliers, users and their needs (Rifkin 2000). This general trend of (either) sharing goods or getting access to it is called “collaborative consumption”.

Collaborative consumption takes many forms, including car sharing, community gardens, credit unions and toy libraries. While these phenomena are arguably reshaping the marketplace, to this point, we lack a way to harmonize these diverse systems under a single umbrella or to connect them to prior research. The present paper focuses on the ways that various social sciences have conceptualized collaborative consumption's goals. The resulting goal-based framework allows both alignment of and differentiation among modern collaborative consumption systems. This approach also helps us identify the rich literatures that can inform our study of different types of modern collaborative consumption systems, thus offering potential for future programmatic knowledge building.
