Produktbeschreibung

The 22nd International Symposium of Logistics (ISL) was hosted in Ljubljana, Slovenia from 9th to 12th July 201. In the first paper, Kalverkamp (2018) notes that in research on closed-loop supply chains, a key contributor to circular economy practices, there is more emphasis on the reverse flow of goods than with industrial symbiosis. In the second paper, exploiting the perspective of the IT providers rather than those acquiring the service, Martins et al. (2018) investigate relational forms for IT outsourcing, determining the extent to which strategic relationships require considerable effort on the part of the providers as opposed to relying on purely transactional processes. In the third paper, Pal et al. (2018) address this issue through an empirical Delphi study of Swedish textile and clothing manufacturers, which are synonymous with labour intensive operations, with respect to identifying the key enablers and inhibitors that would impact the likelihood of reshoring their supply chains. The fourth paper, by Havenga and Simpson (2018), takes a macro perspective of logistics to exploit input-output economic modelling to help inform policy makers as to where investments need to be targeted to enhance national competitiveness and social benefit with due consideration of externalities. In our last paper, we find Zissis et al. (2018) proposing a logistics model for an urban environment, exploiting collaborative approaches, to reduce the total economic, environmental and societal, costs associated with the delivery of groceries.
