The operationalization of sustainable development involves ambiguity, complexity and uncertainty. It becomes more complex when applied in supply chain operations. Indeed, the research in sustainable supply chain management (SSCM) is influenced by positivist paradigms that do not address subjective issues. Therefore, we suggest that SSCM is often dealing with so-called ‘wicked’ problems. This paper aims to emphasize the relationship between wicked problem complexities and SSCM characteristics. Through a ground theory approach, we develop a conceptual framework that relates the social, cognitive and temporal complexities of a wicked problem with characteristics of SSCM. Furthermore, we propose business strategies to mediate this relationship. Our contribution highlights the importance of the stakeholder's engagement to develop common sustainability values and language, clarity and transparency in the supply chain activities, and continuity and equity in a long-term partnership.

供应链中可持续发展的棘手问题

可持续发展的实施涉及模糊性、复杂性和不确定性。当应用于供应链运营时,它变得更加复杂。事实上,可持续供应链管理 (SSCM) 的研究受到不解决主观问题的实证主义范式的影响。因此,我们建议 SSCM 经常处理所谓的“邪恶”问题。本文旨在强调邪恶问题复杂性与 SSCM 特征之间的关系。通过基础理论方法,我们开发了一个概念框架,将邪恶问题的社会、认知和时间复杂性与 SSCM 的特征联系起来。此外,我们提出了调解这种关系的商业策略。我们的贡献突出了利益相关者的重要性
