- This book analyses the emergence of dominant digital platforms and their implications for upholding public values. A critical synthesis of 1,000+ works on neoclassical, institutional and political economy perspectives benefits from insight accumulated by the authors over 30 years of writing about digital technology innovation. The writing involved an eighteen month iterative process of drafting and redrafting chapters by each author to arrive at a common view of the criticisms to which the assumptions underpinning the theoretical positions should be subject and to produce an accessible narrative that would not require readers to have a deep background in economics.
