In this article, we examine the reconfiguration of passenger transportation markets through digital platforms to understand to what extent new market players can impose their interests regarding the governance of these markets. We developed a field-theoretical approach inspired by Pierre Bourdieu’s social theory that takes into account the interaction of endogenous and exogenous forces in struggles about field governance. We empirically compare the passenger transportation sectors in Vienna, Austria, and Berlin, Germany. Our results show that new digital players did not completely disrupt these local markets. However, while platforms were integrated into the existing taxi industry in Vienna, field-specific divisions and conflicts between platforms and rental car companies on the one hand and taxi companies on the other remained or even increased in Berlin. This result can be explained by different structures and practices of the interacting associative, political–administrative, and legal fields as well as the interpretative conflicts about the function of digital transportation platforms in local taxi fields and in the multiscalar field of power.
