My digital nomad academic research

In this video, I overview my four academic articles and one book on the topic of digital nomads from a critical sociological perspective. Digital nomads are remote workers who use their freedom-from-location to travel the world, usually westerners traveling to tourist destination locations such as Thailand. My critique is one on the neoliberal economy. My publications on the topic include the following:
