Abstract
Peer-to-peer accommodation networks in general, and Airbnb in particular, are
frequently referred to as part of the sharing economy. This chapter provides an
overview of key characteristics of the sharing economy, discusses how these
characteristics relate to peer-to-peer accommodation, and positions peer-to-peer
accommodation networks within the sharing economy.
