Summary
This book provides a unique contribution to the controversial discussion that surrounds the digitalisation and virtualisation of work. With a focus on the new formation of space and place, it critically discusses the idea that places in the context of work are increasingly losing their importance, and becoming more arbitrary with new technical possibilities. Chapter 1, 4 and 11 are available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com. Mascha Will-Zocholl is Professor at Hessian University of Police and Administration, Germany. Caroline Roth-Ebner is Associate Professor at the University of Klagenfurt, Austria.
