요약This dissertation examines the development of the professional gaming industry-popularly known as esports-between 2009 and 2020. In contrast to sport-centric frameworks to understanding professional gaming, this dissertation utilizes the framework of platformization of cultural production: the penetration of economic and infrastructural extensions of online platforms into the web, affecting the production, distribution, and circulation of cultural content. Using this framework, I consider how video game publishers, especially Valve, Activision-Blizzard, and Riot Games, sought to transform the underlying technical, legal, and financial arrangements that undergird professional gaming. In particular, I illustrate how, in the 2010s, and like other sectors of cultural production, professional gaming became subject to novel forms of platform governance, multisided markets, and infrastructure. It is argued that esports ought to be understood as an effort to create an articulation of sporting that is aligned with the financial and technical logics of digital platforms.
