- This monograph presents an in-depth study of digital start-up culture, undertaken over four years and including interviews of 75 individuals and long-term fieldwork among the nascent business communities in the developed East Asian territories. It employs an original intersectional (overlapping systems of discrimination such as gender, class, age, and ethnic identities) approach and makes important contributions to media communication, gender, and labour studies. The analysis focuses on the gender and class dynamics and offers a corrective to the predominant US-centric rhetoric of entrepreneurism through the investigation of the hitherto understudied East Asian context.
