This book explores how platform capitalism constructs a cheap labour regime, focusing on gig workers in Indonesia. It’s an attempt to rethink how cheap labour continues to underpin digital economies that promise flexibility but often reproduce precarity. https://t.co/3e75Pl0MMb

After a long and challenging journey, I’m delighted to announce that my book "Cheap Labour Regime in Platform Capitalism" has been published by Springer (2025). The book examines how flexible accumulation under platform capitalism produces a new regime of super-exploitation.

There are plenty of low-income neighbourhoods in south jakarta. I guess it tells more about the artist's circle of friends than their exposure to the issue of socioeconomic inequality in jakarta.

"State capacity, however, does not operate in isolation: successful economic development also relies on institutions and specific policies. Therefore, state capacity, institutional frameworks, and socio-economic policies form a ‘new development triangle’."

Stellan Skarsgard really clocked American propaganda. I’d add that Americans are the most successfully brainwashed people in the world. They believe they have “freedom” when they are indentured serfs. Even soviets didn’t trust all the official slogans.. https://t.co/IHyOQ8iESZ

Hormat pada Laras. Kita nggak boleh diam, krn msh banyak kawan2 muda yg ditangkap dan blm dibebaskan. Ini peristiwa yg sangat brutal yg mengancam demokrasi dan kebebasan berpendapat. #BebaskanKawanKami
Laras Faizati, salah satu perempuan kritis yang dikriminalisasi pasca demonstrasi Agustus 2025, menulis surat ini untuk kita semua. Mereka bukan penjahat. Mereka warga yang bersuara karena peduli. Hidup perempuan yang melawan! #BebaskanKawanKami

Your action had caused a backlash that led to jess, your friend who you are willing to defend for, being targeted as well. You care more about internet clout than thinking about the consequence of your tweets, down to your defensive uwu smol beans behavior after every backlashes.

Beda dgn buku² lainnya yg biasanya berisi kumpulan pidato & artikel, judul yg satu ini, sepertinya sang ketua partai memang meniatkan utk jadi sebuah buku yg runut. Bukunya jadi mesin waktu krn ada tulisan tangan dan tanda tangan basah sang ketua partai 🔥🤘. Priceless, Frèn.
