Resilience Decoded: The Role of Firms, Global Value Chains, and the State in COVID-19 Medical Supplies
通过橡胶手套、口罩、呼吸机和疫苗四个案例，分析企业、全球价值链和国家在疫情中如何应对冲击，为管理者和政策制定者提供构建供应链韧性的策略。
This article examines the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on resilience. Resilience is not a one-dimensional concept but has different meanings at the levels of the firm (operational efficiency), the global value chain (appropriate governance), and the nation-state (national security). It illustrates resilience dynamics through lessons from case studies of four medical supply products—rubber gloves, face masks, ventilators, and vaccines. It explores how each adjusted to disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and presents key strategies that can guide managers and policymakers in building resilience for future supply chain disruptions.
