Sharing Economy in the Dimension of Sustainability and Trust

Abstract

The factors such as how consumers buy things and where they buy products have changed in parallel with the development of mobile internet technologies. Digital interactions among individuals have gained strength thanks to the internet, in which social networks increase interactions. A new economic approach called sharing economy has emerged thanks to these strong interactions. Individuals prefer to temporarily own goods or services rather than permanently via digital sharing platforms. In this context, it is observed that resources are utilised efficiently to meet specific needs. In this way, it can be said that the formation of idle resources is reduced significantly. Sharing economy is examined conceptually based on sustainability and trust. And also, the effect of Covid-19 on the ecosystem of sharing economy and what sorts of ramifications Covid-19 created for sharing economy are examined.
