Commercial sharing platforms like Uber and Airbnb have reshaped the transportation and housing sectors in cities and raised challenges for urban policy makers seeking to balance market disruption with community protections. Transformational sharing projects like Shareable's Sharing Cities Network seek to strengthen the urban commons to address social justice, equity, and sustainability.
The sharing economy with platforms like Uber, Lyft, HomeAway, Airbnb, and many others is reshaping communities in novel ways.
