Course Description
Platform business models – including Facebook, Google, Apple, and Amazon -- have come to dominate the contemporary Internet. We will explore how these companies came to be so powerful, what tradeoffs we have made with their ubiquity, what alternatives either failed or could emerge, and how geopolitical and multicultural considerations do and could come into play. As with any complex, emergent phenomenon, our emphasis will be on exploration and critical thinking rather than memorization or skills development.
