Blockchain and Supply Chain Management, Second Edition combines discussions of blockchain and supply chains, linking technologies such as artificial intelligence, Internet of Things, satellite imagery, and machine vision. The book examines blockchain’s basic concepts, relevant theories, and its roles in meeting key supply chain objectives. The book addresses problems related to inefficiency, opacity, and fraud, helping the digitization process, simplifying the value creation process, and facilitating collaboration. The book is balanced between blockchain and supply chain application and theory, covering the latest technological, organizational and regulatory developments in blockchain from a supply chain perspective.

The book discusses the opportunities, barriers, and enablers of blockchain in supply chain policy, along with legal and ethical implications. The second edition has been thoroughly updated with a new chapter on the luxury good industry supply chains, as well as updated data and statistics; new examples, case studies, and In-Focus boxes; and added regularly updates throughout the book.

As supply chain management faces massive disruption with the dynamic changes in global trade, the impact of Covid-19, and technological innovation, scholars, students, and researchers, as well as practitioners such as analysts, consultants, executives, engineers, and managers, will find this a valuable resource for addressing problems related to inefficiency, opacity, and fraud, helping the digitization process, simplifying the value creation process, and facilitating collaboration.
