The Digital Economy: How Platforms, Data, AI, Drivers, Logistics, Finance, and Local Commerce Are Rebuilding the World (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798180881847)

The world economy is being rebuilt by platforms, data, artificial intelligence, logistics, digital payments, drivers, algorithms, and local commerce.

The Digital Economy explains how this transformation is happening and why it matters for workers, entrepreneurs, students, business owners, policymakers, and anyone trying to understand the future of money, work, and economic power.

This book presents the digital economy not as a separate world, but as the physical economy reorganized by technology. Behind every app is infrastructure. Behind every digital order is logistics. Behind every delivery is a driver. Behind every platform is data. Behind every recommendation is an algorithm. Behind every transaction is a financial system being reshaped in real time.

Marc Aurele Yetgang explains the digital economy as a system made of platforms, data, artificial intelligence, algorithms, cloud infrastructure, local commerce, fintech, logistics, labor, regulation, and national power. The book shows how digital platforms connect supply and demand, how data becomes economic intelligence, how AI is transforming productivity, how drivers and warehouse workers remain essential, and how local businesses can survive and compete in a world dominated by giant platforms.

The central message is clear: the digital economy will not destroy the physical world. It will reorganize it.
