It is apparent that file sharing on the Internet has become an
emerging norm of media consumption-especially among young people.
This book provides a critical perspective on this phenomenon,
exploring issues related to file sharing, downloading, peer-to-peer
networks, "piracy," and (not least) policy issues regarding these
practices. Andersson Schwartz critically engages with the
justificatory discourses of the actual file-sharers, taking Sweden
as a geographic focus. By focusing on the example of Sweden-home to
both The Pirate Bay and Spotify-he provides a unique insight into a
mentality that drives both innovation and deviance and accommodates
sharing in both its unadulterated and its compliant,
business-friendly forms.
