The purpose of this study is to advance understanding of the Hispanic contribution to the engagement and production of the sharing and informal economies in the US. The study is situated within the domains of the sharing economy and informality within a broader frame of entrepreneurship. Specifically, Hispanic participation rates, rationale for engagement, and the major drivers of involvement in the production of the sharing and informal economies are analyzed. To evaluate this, data are reported from a nationally representative subsample of Hispanics derived from the US Federal Reserve Board’s Enterprising and Informal Work Activities Survey (EIWA) conducted in the late fall of 2015. The finding is that more than one-third of Hispanics engage in EIWA. Hispanics participate in EIWA primarily as a means to earn extra income or as a key avenue to earn a living. By choice, relatively affluent Hispanics have the largest stake in sharing and informal economies. However, it is the lowest income Hispanics that engage in EIWA out of necessity. The major drivers of EIWA participation among Hispanics are revealed. This is the first known study with a nationally representative sample of Hispanics focused on participation rates, rationale for engagement, and drivers of involvement in the production of new age sharing and informal economies.

新时代的非正式性:西班牙裔与共享经济

这项研究的目的是加深对西班牙裔对美国共享经济和非正规经济参与和生产的贡献的了解。该研究位于更广泛的企业家精神框架内的共享经济和非正规性领域内。具体而言,分析了西班牙裔的参与率,参与的理由以及参与共享经济和非正规经济生产的主要驱动因素。为了对此进行评估,数据来自拉美裔美国人的全国代表性子样本,该子样本来自美国联邦储备委员会在2015年秋末进行的进取和非正式工作活动调查(EIWA)。调查结果发现,超过三分之一的拉美裔美国人参与其中在EIWA中。西班牙裔人参加EIWA的主要途径是赚取额外收入或作为谋生的主要途径。通过选择,相对富裕的西班牙裔在共享经济和非正规经济中拥有最大的利益。但是,正是出于最低需要而从事EIWA的最低收入的西班牙裔人。揭示了西班牙裔美国人参与EIWA的主要动力。这是第一个已知的,具有全国代表性的拉美裔样本的研究,重点是参与率,参与的理由以及参与生产新年龄共享和非正规经济的驱动因素。
