  Chokepoint Capitalism - How Big...

  A call to action for the creative class and labor movement to rally against the power of Big Tech and Big Media 
  Corporate concentration has breached the stratosphere, as have corporate profits. An ever-expanding constellation of industries are now monopolies (where sellers have excessive power over buyers) or monopsonies (where buyers hold the whip hand over sellers)—or both. 
  In Chokepoint Capitalism, scholar Rebecca Giblin and writer and activist Cory Doctorow argue we’re in a new era of “chokepoint capitalism,” with exploitative businesses creating insurmountable barriers to competition that enable them to capture value that should rightfully go to others. All workers are weakened by this, but the problem is especially well-illustrated by the plight of creative workers. From Amazon’s use of digital rights management and bundling to radically change the economics of book publishing, to Google and Facebook’s siphoning away of ad revenues from news media, and the Big Three record labels’ use of inordinately long contracts to up their own margins at the cost of artists, chokepoints are everywhere. 
  By analyzing book publishing and news, live music and music streaming, screenwriting, radio and more, Giblin and Doctorow deftly show how powerful corporations construct “anti-competitive flywheels” designed to lock in users and suppliers, make their markets hostile to new entrants, and then force workers and suppliers to accept unfairly low prices. 
  In the book’s second half, Giblin and Doctorow then explain how to batter through those chokepoints, with tools ranging from transparency rights to collective action and ownership, radical interoperability, contract terminations, job guarantees, and minimum wages for creative work.

  This is a book for senior executives who lead organizations with a heavy dependence on physical assets such as fixed plant, factories, facilities, mobile equipment, vehicle fleets, pipelines and other linear assets. You don't need to be expert in asset reliability or how to maintain those assets, but your people do. Maintenance and reliailbity are two subject areas that are often both poorly understood and poorly executed. The result is high cost to keep things running, a lot of breakdowns, and substantial lost revenue opportunity because of the downtime. Getting out of that situation requires your organization to go beyond the knowledge, skills and expertise needed when operating smoothly. The change cross multiple functional areas (department) and will run into substantial resistance. Delegating responsibility too low in the organization will result in disappointing results. The key to overcoming those challenges is your active participation at the level of executive sponsor in the transformation. To do that, you benefit from an overview of the areas where problems will reside and what must be done about them. This book provides that overview and advice.
