Serf‐ing the Net: Contrasting Uber Workers in the United Kingdom With Uber Neo‐Villeins in Ontario
将优步司机的工作与新农奴制特征对比,揭示剥削关系。英国司机获得工人身份,而安大略省的法律却确立了新农奴制。
ABSTRACT We illustrate the exploitation in the relationship between Uber and its drivers by aligning their work with the characteristics of neo‐villeiny. Two different legal developments in response to irregulation (or the lack of effective regulation) in similar institutional contexts emerge. While Uber drivers in the United Kingdom now have worker status, dysregulation (by which we mean regulation that exacerbates the problem it seeks to resolve) in Ontario has established neo‐villeiny in law.
