“…Sharing and renting are also stated in many other definitions; however, selling should not be considered in such systems, because the transfer of ownership does not happen in the SE, and a temporary access to the assets is provided for the consumers. In fact, most of the researchers (e.g., [62,88,114,115]) emphasize temporary access over ownership in the SE.…”

Abstract:In recent years, through the advances in technology and highlighting the sustainability concepts in different aspects of human lives, the sharing economy has become an interesting topic for researchers, and also, many businesses claim to be active in this environment. However, a comprehensive definition, which is generally accepted, does not yet exist in the literature. In this paper, through a systematic literature review, analysis, and coding, a comprehensive definition, and also, an inclusive framework is presented for the sharing economy. This can help scientists and businesses to clarify which companies or parts of their activities fall into the SE category, and which do not. Such clarification in a small scale is done for five companies at the end of the paper.

“…Three major motives behind sharing economy participation are based on economic, environmental, and locational factors (Bocker and Meelen 2016). Several studies conducted recently to investigate different aspects of sharing economy including intentions to participate (Kim et al 2015;Zhang et al 2016), positive impact of trust on sharing economy participation (Mittendorf 2017), positive sustainability motivation influence on attitude toward sharing economy (Hamari et al 2016), community belonging relationship with sharing economy selection (Möhlmann 2015), and locational amenities' impact on service providers' actual participation (Koohikamali et al 2017).…”

ABSTRACT:In recent years, disruptive innovation by peer-to-peer platforms in a variety of industries, notably transportation and hospitality have altered the way individuals consume everyday essential services. With growth in sharing economy platforms such as Uber for ridesharing and Airbnb for short-term accommodations, interest in examining spatiotemporal patterns of participation in the sharing economy by suppliers and consumers is increasing. This research is motivated by key questions: who are the sharing economy workers, where are they located, and does their location influence their participation in the sharing economy? This paper is the first systematic effort to analyze spatiotemporal patterns of participation by hosts in the shared accommodation-based economy. Using three different kinds of shared accommodations listed in a 3-year period in the popular short-term accommodation platform, Airbnb, we examine spatiotemporal dimensions of host participation in a major U.S. market, Los Angeles CA. The paper also develops a conceptual model by positing associations of demographic, socioeconomic, occupational, and social capital attributes of hosts, along with their attitudes toward trust and greener consumption with hosts' participation in a shared accommodation market. Results confirm host participation to be influenced by young dependency ratio, the potential of supplemental income, as well as the sustainability potential of collaborative consumption, along with finance, insurance, and real estate occupation, but not so much by trust for our overall study area. These results add new insights to limited prior knowledge about the sharing economy worker and have policy implications.

“…A közösségi gazdaság által kínált különböző megoldásokat a szakirodalom eltérően csoportosítja (PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, 2015;Owyang, et al, 2014;ING Bank, 2015;Parragh, 2016;Schor, 2014;Böcker & Meelen, 2016;PricewaterhouseCoopers Magyarország, 2015;Felländer, et al, 2015). Természetesen vannak közös kategóriák, amelyek mentén haladnak, de ki-ki részletesebben, illetve kevésbé részletesebben kategorizálja a vállalkozásokat.…”

“…Böcker & Meelen (2016) publikációjukban ezt a kategóriát két részre osztották, a hosszú távú autómegosztásra és a rövid távú utazásmegosztásra. Jelen esetben mind a két eszköz ebbe a kategóriába került besorolásra, a bicikli megosztására irányuló szolgáltatások-kal együtt, mint Magyarországon a MOL Bubi vagy a visszajelzések segítségével működő navigációs rendszer a Waze.…”
