Spotlight:Re‐imagining supply chain challenges through critical engaged research

This week we are focusing on a featured paper from our third EDI “Re‐imagining supply chain challenges through critical engaged research” we talk to Anne Touboulic Lucy McCarthy and Lee Matthews about their research which appears in Issue 56 Volume 2.

“In this manuscript, we explore how engaged research can support the development of the theory and practice of supply chain management (SCM) and present critical engaged research as an extended form of engaged research. The article’s main purpose is to examine more closely the relationship between critical engaged research and the process of theorizing. This essay presents an expanded model of knowledge production for the field of SCM and explores the opportunities for the production and co‐production of new knowledge types, with an emphasis on knowledge produced through a critical engagement with practice. We offer a discussion on how critical engaged research may be applied in SCM research to build, elaborate and test theory.”
