About this book
Published by Takween Publishing, "Sugar Daddy Capitalism: The Dark Side of the New Economy" by Peter Fleming delivers a fierce critique of contemporary corporate culture and the gig economy. Fleming uses the provocative "Sugar Daddy" metaphor to analyze the dark realities of modern capitalism, where platform companies and corporations market themselves as benevolent facilitators of freedom while enforcing deep financial dependency and job insecurity. The book explores how the erosion of traditional labor rights, zero-hour contracts, and algorithmic management have turned workers into disposable assets. Written with sharp wit and intellectual rigor, Fleming exposes the illusions of modern work culture and demands a radical rethink of labor, inequality, and corporate dominance.
Why read it?
It offers an eye-opening, unsparing critique of modern work culture and platform capitalism, helping readers understand the systemic forces behind rising job insecurity and workplace anxiety.
Who is it for?
Scholars of political economy, sociology, corporate ethics, labor rights advocates, gig economy workers, and anyone critical of modern corporate culture and capitalism.
