Description

Borderlines and Bottlenecks features a rich collection of real-world examples and detailed case studies, highlighting how recent pandemic and geopolitical events, including the Sino-US trade war, the COVID pandemic, the Russia-Ukraine War, and the Red Sea Crisis, have disrupted and reshaped global supply chains. By exploring the complex interplay between political, economic, and social forces, readers gain a deeper understanding of the challenges and opportunities facing businesses and policymakers in the rapidly changing supply chain landscape. Zhang uses social media-based discourse analysis and pioneering work in GIS-based discourse analysis to offer fresh insights into global supply chain dynamics.
