Supply chain disruptions emerge as a significant driver of global inflation, particularly in the aftermath of pandemics, geopolitical tensions, and climate-related events. These disruptions, ranging from factory shutdowns and shipping delays to shortages of raw materials and labor, have strained the flow of goods and services across international markets. As supply disruptions limit the availability of products, costs rise throughout the production and distribution chains, fueling price increases for consumers and businesses. The resulting pressures challenge central banks, policymakers, and corporations, underscoring the interconnectedness of global trade and the vulnerabilities in complex supply networks. Supply Chain Disruptions and Impact on Global Inflation explores how supply chain disruptions, caused by pandemics, geopolitical conflicts, natural disasters, labor shortages, and technological failures, affect pricing mechanisms and contribute to inflationary pressures. It examines the interplay between supply chain fragility and macroeconomic stability. This book covers topics such as geopolitics, market volatility, and trade wars, and is a useful resource for policymakers, business owners, economists, academicians, researchers, and scientists.
