    • Abstract:
      Eva Kocher's book, "Digital Work Platforms at the Interface of Labour Law: Regulating Market Organisers," explores the legal status and rights of digital platform workers. Kocher takes an integrative approach, combining management and organizational theories with labor law models. The book discusses worker classifications and labor law theory, as well as the unique characteristics of digital platform work. Kocher proposes the creation of an intermediate category for digital platform workers, which would provide them with labor rights and collective bargaining power. While the book is rich in theories and legal analysis, it does not fully address the power dynamics and technological aspects of digital platform work. [Extracted from the article]
