Abstract
Davide Arcidiacono, Francesco Bonifacio and Ivana Pais present the
third initiative of Part III in Chapter 9, ‘Consegne Etiche: the ethical platform
for food delivery’. The experience of Consegne Etiche (Ethical Delivery),
a cooperative of home-delivery services founded in Bologna, constitutes an
alternative model to multinational platforms to provide a solution to the condition
of riders and generate positive political pressure to transform the sector
of urban logistics. The authors argue that unlike other experiences of solidarity
building, the case of Bologna displays a remarkable synergy between the local
administration and informal unions as the cooperative was promoted by the
Municipality of Bologna with the collaboration of the Riders Union Bologna
movement. This initiative embodies a more advanced step in the process
of collaboration around the rights of delivery workers, moving from implementing
reactive strategies of resistance towards the promotion of an ethical
alternative adopting the cooperative model.
