Improving sustainable supply chain performance through organisational culture: A competing values framework approach

This research adopts the institutional and relational view theories to empirically test the impact of organisational culture (OC) on sustainable supply chain performance (SSCP) and further examines the impact of external integration on their relationship, drawing on a study in the food manufacturing industries in the UK and Greece. Using the mixed method approach, structural equation modelling (SEM) technique was first used to empirically analyse the data from a survey of 315 firms. In addition, insights from 11 interviews from top managers were qualitatively used as the basis to enrich and confirm the findings from the quantitative study. Our findings revealed that in the context of global supply chains only developmental, hierarchical, and group culture components of the competing values framework (CVF) as a model for assessing OC are conducive for achieving a higher SSCP. Although developmental, hierarchical and group cultures are instrumental for SSCP, a strong external integration is still required. Thus, external integration was found to mediate the relationship between the dimensions of OC and SSCP. The results further confirmed a positive relationship between all the dimensions of OC (developmental, group, hierarchical and rational culture) and external integration and a positive impact of external integration on SSCP. This research expands the institutional and relational view theories to examine the effect of OC (using CVF) on SSCP and further reveals the extent of external integration needed in the relationship to enhance SSCP in global supply chains. Supply chain managers are encouraged to adopt integrated competing values, namely, developmental, group, and hierarchical cultures to intensify the external integration in the supply chain to overcome several sustainability challenges and improve SSCP.     

国家生态文明试验区建设有助于提升碳排放效率吗？——基于合成控制法的实证分析

以2016年起分批设立的国家生态文明试验区为准自然实验,借助合成控制法实证评估其建设对各试验区碳排放效率的影响效果及作用机制。研究发现,国家生态文明试验区建设有助于提升福建省和江西省的碳排放效率,且对福建省的提升幅度高于江西省,经安慰剂检验、排序检验、稀疏合成控制检验、DID检验后结论依旧成立。效率分解发现,国家生态文明试验区建设提升了福建省碳排放的规模效率变化指数,对江西省碳排放的规模效率变化指数和纯技术效率变化指数均有促进作用。机制分析发现,促进绿色技术创新、改善能源利用效率分别作为内生动力和外部途径,均能在国家生态文明试验区建设提升碳排放效率的过程中发挥积极作用。研究为全面推进我国生态文明建设、早日实现碳达峰和碳中和目标提供了理论参考和政策启示。     

An empirical analysis of green supply chain management in the German automotive industry

The purpose of this paper is the empirical investigation of the status quo of green supply chain management in the German automotive industry from a practitioner's point of view. Several aspects of green supply chain management, such as the point of time of implementation, the driving forces, the relevance of intended goals and their particular realization and the adoption of eco‐programs with suppliers and customers as well as internal and external barriers are analyzed. Furthermore, the link to different performance criteria is tested by inductive statistics in order to show the potential of green supply chain management for competitiveness. For this study, managers from the automotive supply industry in Germany were asked about their estimations in this regard. The main conclusion is that managers express the need for green supply chain management on the one hand but also see corresponding problems in terms of required resources on the other hand. Furthermore, the analyses show that green supply chain management leads to higher performance in terms of several performance criteria.

地震灾后绿色乡村营建策略研究——以陕南汉中骆家嘴村灾后重建为例

2008年"5.12"特大地震后,陕西省南部受到严重的破坏,尤其是宁强县和略阳县,灾后重建任务十分艰巨。面对社会各界的支援,灾后村庄建设呈现出前所未有的机遇,但如何在灾后全方位地营建乡村社区,并充分体现其地域特色,也是一次严峻的挑战。地震灾后重建,不仅要考虑房屋建筑等生活空间的营建,还应统筹和规划考虑农村主导产业的生产恢复与技术提升,更新产业结构,以及建设新的循环农业模式。为此针对陕南地震灾后乡村现状,选取宁强县受灾最严重的广坪镇骆家嘴村为例,提出应结合该地区地域特点、产业结构和农村社会发展现状,从村庄规划及建设发展模式开发与新型民居示范等方面营建绿色乡村社区,探索灾后绿色乡村营建策略。     

中等城市绿色交通系统分类评定模型建构

根据以往我国城市绿色交通的调查结论,设计调查问卷,调查之后进行分析。运用Logit回归模型,建立一个专门针对二元因变量的Binary Logit模型,得出以下结论:收入水平、交通拥堵状况、对小汽车的态度和低碳环保意识4个变量因为统计检验不显著而未能进入最终模型。同时,油价、停车费、居所附近的直达公交线路、居所附近的轨道交通、公共交通乘坐舒适度、工作日平均出行距离与居民绿色出行方式的选择具有显著相关关系。
