Continuity and change Reflections on over a decade of research on platform-mediated gig work

This article reports on a Roundtable Workshop organised to reflect on the continuities and changes in the geographically variegated development of the gig economy and to assess the state of the art in gig economy research. The workshop brought to light how, despite growing academic attention over the past decade, gig economy research still grapples with a number of blind spots that deter advancements in the field. The main contribution of the workshop was to stage a debate on how these theoretical and methodological blind spots may be overcome and to sketch an innovative research agenda that can push the field ahead in its second decade.
