Digital Culture & Society (DCS): Vol. 5, Issue 2/2019 - Laborious Play and Playful Work I (Digital Culture & Society) (Digital Culture & Society) - Softcover
Synopsis
This double issue of Digital Culture & Society addresses the complex thematic field of the dialectics of play and labour. We will take a closer look at the problem of play and work from two overlapping, albeit not mutually exclusive, perspectives: laborious play and playful work. The term laborious play points to practices and processes that turn playful activities into hard work. Laborious play happens whenever playfulness turns into work, and may be observed in such activities such as e-sports, excessive play, "goldfarming", and Twitch gameplay broadcasting, amongst many others. A complementary phenomenon to that of laborious play is the practice and concept of playful work. The promises of a joyful and rewarding working experience have been promoted as "gamification" while critical voices denounce such attempts as ideology, exploitation or simply rubbish.

Condition: Muy bueno. : Este número doble de Digital Culture & Society aborda el complejo campo temático de la dialéctica entre juego y trabajo. Analizaremos más de cerca el problema del juego y el trabajo desde dos perspectivas superpuestas, aunque no mutuamente excluyentes: el juego laborioso y el trabajo lúdico. El término juego laborioso apunta a prácticas y procesos que convierten las actividades lúdicas en trabajo duro. El juego laborioso ocurre cuando la alegría se convierte en trabajo y puede observarse en actividades como los e-sports, el juego excesivo, la "agricultura de oro" y la transmisión de juegos de Twitch, entre muchas otras. Un fenómeno complementario al del juego laborioso es la práctica y el concepto de trabajo lúdico. Las promesas de una experiencia laboral alegre y gratificante se han promocionado como "gamificación", mientras que las voces críticas denuncian tales intentos como ideología, explotación o simplemente "tonterías".
