“…In summary, most of the literature in SCs co-opetition is about channel competition and cooperation strategy (Li and Li, 2016;Ma et al, 2019;Cheng and Ding, 2021). Furthermore, Hafezalkotob (2017), Yu and You (2019) not only considered the channel competition and cooperation, but also considered the horizontal competition and cooperation between manufacturers.…”

Enterprise competition has been transformed into chain-to-chain competition, and green development is imperative under the promotion of policies. Horizontal cooperation between green and non-green manufacturers provides a new direction for the supply chain to improve its core competitiveness. This paper develops competition and cooperation models between two manufacturers for the green and non-green supply chain under two-way government intervention to explore the impact of manufacturers’ horizontal cooperation on decisions and profits of supply chain members. In particular, for a situation without cooperation, we consider a Stackelberg game between two manufacturers. Model solutions and numerical analysis have shown that: 1) Cooperation among manufacturers can not only improve their own profits, but also strengthen environmental welfare. However, cooperation will damage consumer surplus. 2) When consumers are more sensitive to product prices, manufacturers’ cooperative behavior is not conducive to retailers, but with the improvement of consumer environmental awareness, retailers will gradually support their upstream cooperation. 3) Under the simultaneous implementation of government subsidy and punishment strategies, whether green consumption can be promoted is related to the adjustment factor of government subsidies, while the relationship between the green level floor for subsidy and product greenness is affected by the adjustment factor of subsidies and manufacturers’ cooperation. 4) The impacts of fierce price competition and green level competition on supply chain members are opposite; when the price competition is moderate or the green level competition is weak, the manufacturers’ cooperation is also beneficial to the improvement of retailers’ profits. This provides ideas for the development of green supply chain, and provides a reference for the implementation of two-way government intervention policy.

With the change of emerging technology and economic environment, the governance of the lack and alienation of platform corporate social responsibility has become more urgent. This paper considers the root causes of the defects in autonomy and the necessity of heteronomy regarding platform corporate social responsibility, and studies whether self-interested governance or common-benefit governance is more conducive to platform CSR heteronomy. The governance strategy of each subject in heteronomy of platform corporate social responsibility is studied using differential games. The governments, the public, and bilateral users are the subject of governance, and their decision-making models are constructed. The optimal decisions of three subjects, the best trajectory of heteronomy profits and the amount of governance are analyzed. Finally, the variation of profit, amount of governance, and the influence of each parameter on the amount of governance were analyzed using simulation software. The research results show that the amount of governance gradually reaches a stable state over time. Cobeneficial governance can work better for the heteronomy of platform corporate social responsibility. The maturity of the ecosystem in which the governance subject and the platform corporate are located positively affects the amount of governance.INDEX TERMS Heteronomy strategies, platform corporate, corporate social responsibility, differential game.

PurposeIt is necessary to implement green supply chains. But green development needs to be gradual and coexist with ordinary products in the market. This paper aims to study the green and ordinary product pricing and green decision-making under chain-to-chain competition.Design/methodology/approachThis paper considers consumers' multiple preferences and takes two competitive supply chains with asymmetric channels as the research object. Through the construction of the game models involving different competitive situations, this paper studies the pricing, green decision-making and the supply chains' profits, and discusses the impact of consumer green preference, channel preference, green investment and competition on the decision-making and performance. Finally, this paper further studies the impact of the decision structure on the environmental and economic benefits of supply chains.FindingsThe results show that consumer green preference has an incentive effect on the green supply chain and also provides an opportunity for the regular supply chain to increase revenue. Specifically, consumers' preference for green online channels improves the product greenness, but its impact on the green retailer and regular supply chain depends on the green investment cost. Moreover, competition not only fosters product sustainability, but also improves supply chain performance. This paper also points out that the decentralization of the regular supply chain is conducive to the environmental attributes of the green product, while the environment-friendly structure of the green supply chain is different under different conditions. In addition, the profit of a supply chain under centralized decision is not always higher than that under decentralized decision.Originality/valueThe novelty of this paper is that it investigates the pricing of two heterogeneous alternative products and green decision-making for the green product under the competition between two supply chains with asymmetric channels, in which the green supply chain adopts dual channels and the regular supply chain adopts a single retail channel.
