Navigating Complexity: Interdisciplinary Approaches to Sustainable Supply Chain Management
Journal Title: Management Research Quarterly - Year 2024, Vol 1, Issue 3
Abstract
This editorial introduces a special issue dedicated to exploring sustainable supply chains through an interdisciplinary lens, incorporating theories from International Relations (IR) to better understand the complexities of global logistics in an era marked by significant geopolitical shifts. As the demand for sustainable business practices grows, this issue highlights innovative research that integrates environmental, social, and economic considerations into supply chain management. The contributions within this issue apply a mix of realist and liberalist IR perspectives to dissect the dynamics of global and local supply chain strategies, focusing on industries such as shipping and the growing influence of artificial intelligence in supply chain practices.
