ABSTRACT
In the afterword, the reflections proposed in the previous chapters are drawn together. The first part of the volume summarised the three main axes of analysis: measurement, classification, and representation of hybrid areas of labour. The second part illustrated the epistemological and methodological approach by introducing the concept of Hybrid as Method and describing how it was applied within the ERC project SHARE. The last part reported the main research findings, which combined statistical, legal, and ethnographic approaches and were conducted from 2017 to 2023 by a team of ten researchers in six European countries. By connecting different disciplines and crossing the boundaries of different research techniques, the SHARE project introduced the concept of ‘hybrid’, drawn from feminist science and technology studies and postcolonial studies, as an analytical lens to explore the changing scenario of contemporary labour and imagine new perspectives on it.
