Unpacking the Role of Justice in Agricultural Commodity Supply Networks”Published in the Journal of Operations Management—a top-tier, FT50 powerhouse of a journal where only the most rigorous research gets a seat at the table. 🍽️📈👨🔬👩🔬 Brought to us by a brilliant team: Felipe Alexandre Lima, Evelyne Vanpoucke, Stefan Gold & Stefan Seuring.These researchers went deep—like, Mato Grosso, Brazil deep—interviewing, observing, and analyzing the tangled web of power in agricultural supply networks.And what they uncovered?Power isn’t just a corporate lever. It’s a force that shapes justice, equity, and sustainability.⚖️ Too much power in the wrong hands leads to manipulation, exploitation, and environmental fallout.💡 But balanced power—shared, intentional, and fair—can create a cascade of good: fair wages, protected ecosystems, empowered communities.They don’t just diagnose the problem—they give us six propositions and a sharp theoretical model to turn power from a wrecking ball into a building block. 🧱🌱So here’s the question we’re wrestling with today:In a world hungry for sustainability, how do we shift power without losing control?🙏 Special thanks to the authors—Felipe Lima, Evelyne Vanpoucke, Stefan Gold, and Stefan Seuring—and to Wiley Periodicals LLC, publishing on behalf of the Association for Supply Chain Management, for giving this research the spotlight it deserves.🚨 And before you log off, make sure to subscribe to Revise and Resubmit on Spotify, Apple Podcast, and Amazon Prime! 🎧📺 Want more?
