Virtual Competition

Ariel Ezrachi and Maurice Stucke take a hard look at today's app-assisted paradise of digital shopping. The algorithms and data-crunching that make online purchasing so convenient are also changing the nature of the market by shifting power into the hands of the few, with risks to competition, our democratic ideals, and our overall well-being.

Ariel Ezrachi si Maurice Stucke analizeaza cu atentie paradisul de astazi al cumparaturilor digitale, asistat de aplicatii. Algoritmii si analiza datelor care fac achizitiile online atat de convenabile schimba, de asemenea, natura pietei prin mutarea puterii in mainile catorva, cu riscuri pentru concurenta, idealurile noastre democratice si bunastarea noastra generala.
