When Collaboration Bridges or Breaks: A Systematic Review of Emerging Trends in Supply Chain Resilience and Sustainability
通过系统文献综述和深度学习主题建模，梳理了供应链协作研究的发展，识别出三种协作架构，并提出“中介薄度”概念解释数字技术与制度嵌入之间的差距，以及治理依赖机制如何影响韧性与可持续性。
ABSTRACT Widespread digital adoption has challenged our understanding of how these tools reshape collaboration, trust and sustainability outcomes across different institutional and network contexts. As networks now pursue resilience and sustainable development in parallel, we map emerging research directions and identify how collaboration and stakeholder engagement are enabled under these dual aims. A systematic literature review augmented by a hybrid deep‐learning topic‐modeling framework, combining BART for semantic filtering and BERTopic for thematic clustering, maps the evolution of collaboration research in supply chains. The results identify three dominant collaboration architectures: sophisticated optimisation models, smart and distributed platforms and collaborative knowledge ecosystems, each characterised by distinct validation and coordination patterns. From these patterns, we introduce mediator thinness to explain the recurrent gap between digital technical affordances and institutional embedding and propose governance‐contingent mechanisms through which emerging digital collaboration influences resilience, sustainability and environmental performance outcomes.
