摘要
This article focuses on cloudworking in developing countries and the implications of this type of work on development. The analysis draws on two eminent development theories—the capabilities approach and dependency theory. Using these framework, opportunities and risks of cloudwork to developing countries are presented and analyzed, and policy implications discussed. © Society for International Development 2024.
