[Logprofs] Call for papers: Building theory in supply chain management through "systematic reviews'' of the literature

[Lucy Sootheran]

Supply Chain Management: An International Journal<http://www.emeraldinsight.com/scm.htm> (SCMIJ) invites submissions to a special issue on Building theory in supply chain management through "systematic reviews'' of the literature.

This special issue is designed to build theory in the field of Supply Chain Management.

SCMIJ is looking for literature reviews pertaining to all topics in supply chain management. The review methodology must be evidence-based, using a robust "auditable'' and "repeatable'' literature review methodology. Please note: Narrative reviews using poor methodology will be rejected by the Editors.

The review should focus on a single question that tries to identify, appraise, select and synthesize all high quality research evidence relevant to that question. The single research question should fulfil SCMIJ requirements by having a multi-disciplinary focus and extending beyond the dyad. Complex issues in supply chain management research require holistic and systematic approaches to investigation; better understood through multi-disciplinary lenses. The objective of ``extending beyond the dyad'' is aimed at pushing the boundaries beyond the traditional buyer/supplier interface.
