Supply Chain Management in Times of Crisis

This 3rd and final ‘Supply Chain Management in Times of Crisis’ e-book focuses specifically on the current scope of and opportunities for future research in disaster management and crisis planning relevant to 21st century supply chain management and business logistics. As such, this e-book should assist researchers in: 1) understanding where the research field currently stands, 2) discovering pathways/ streams to extended extant research, and 3) uncovering theoretical opportunities for developing new streams of study. The goal of this e-book is to develop a repository of extant knowledge for grounding and developing future research. As this field matures, our research must develop a better theoretical footing. This will most likely be done by understanding the breadth and depth of both historical and current research and building a clear perceptive on how to employ extant theory which is what this e-book aims to do.
