My book GoFailMe: The Unfulfilled Promise of Digital Crowdfunding (Stanford University Press) was reviewed by Anne Kovalainen in the American Journal of Sociology.
Schneiderhan and Lukk provide a highly interesting and original analysis of how crowdfunding sites, like other for-profit and technological solutions, fail to address social inequality as a structural phenomenon and instead conflate it with individual narratives, reshaping at the same time the future forms of charity in society.
