As part of business and management studies, research works addressed blockchain technology (BCT) in logistics and supply chain management (LSCM) first in 2016. Increasing levels of interest from researchers and practitioners alike have led to an increasing number of studies from both ends; however, a thorough bibliometric- and cocitation network analysis of BCT in LSCM research has not been carried out so far. To address this gap and to build a basis for future research endeavors, this article provides a bibliometric analysis on BCT, comprising data from 613 articles from academic supply chain research. It is therefore an easy-to-access entry point for academics and practitioners into the topic of BCT in LSCM. This study aims to understand the status of research of BCT in LSCM. To present the results, this article employs a bibliometric analysis methodology. It adopts a citation network analysis and a cocitation analysis. Based on a cocitation analysis, this article classifies the existing literature into five different research clusters, including theoretical sensemaking, conceptualizing and testing blockchain applications, framing BCT into supply chains, the technical design of BCT applications for real-world LSCM applications, and the role of BCT within digital supply chains.

区块链技术在物流与供应链管理中的应用——2016年至2020年1月文献计量文献综述


作为商业和管理研究的一部分，研究工作于 2016 年首次涉及物流和供应链管理 (LSCM) 中的区块链技术 (BCT)。研究人员和从业者的兴趣日益浓厚，导致双方的研究数量不断增加；然而，迄今为止，LSCM 研究中尚未对 BCT 进行彻底的文献计量和共引网络分析。为了弥补这一差距并为未来的研究工作奠定基础，本文提供了 BCT 的文献计量分析，其中包括来自学术供应链研究的 613 篇文章的数据。因此，它是学者和从业者进入 LSCM 中的 BCT 主题的一个易于访问的切入点。本研究旨在了解BCT在LSCM中的研究现状。为了展示结果，本文采用了文献计量分析方法。它采用引文网络分析和同引分析。基于共引分析，本文将现有文献分为五个不同的研究集群，包括理论意义构建、区块链应用的概念化和测试、将 BCT 纳入供应链、BCT 应用在现实世界 LSCM 应用中的技术设计以及其作用。数字供应链中的 BCT。
