“…The consumer is a dynamic actor, giving life to a sequence of attributes (physical and symbolic) over time, for example with the use of 3D printers shaping objects upon request, and then reusing the material from an obsolete object to shape new products (Petrick and Simpson, 2013). Even if we are only at the beginning of the game of home-based factories, the open promises are considerable, as noted by Bouvier-Patron (2015, p. 174) in his analysis of the FabLab, a collaborative space of creation “open to all, offering opportunities to make objects through digital design and manufacture by sharing knowledge and skills to, quickly, without having to resort to companies, move from the concept to the prototype and then to one-off and/or series development”.…”

Purpose The paper aims to introduce the issue of supply chain management in the context of increasingly rare and costly resources and to define the notion of frugal supply chain, in particular, in reference to the development of circular economy. The challenges of frugal supply chain are detailed for a set of private and public stakeholders. Design/methodology/approach As a programmatic viewpoint, this paper aims at developing debates regarding the future of supply chains, building upon current technical and managerial innovations. Findings Frugal supply chains constitute a new business perspective. It transforms the way value creation process is considered, in reference to the models of circular economy, and the systems in which companies evolve. The circular economy represents many opportunities for new forms of growth in the context of rare resources, and it raises several challenges for a variety of stakeholders, more or less, involved in the management of closed loop supply chains. Practical implications Frugal strategies in a supply chain context may provide both a source of competitive advantage for companies and an enhancement of their commitment to society. Social implications The practices described in the paper aim at stimulating a new view of logistics management, based on the principles of sustainable development. Frugal supply chains offer the possibility of reflecting on a more moderate, sensible and effective use of several commons by taking part in the conservation of rare resources for future generations. Originality/value This viewpoint introduces the concept of frugal supply chains, rarely approached in the literature, and it offers the opportunity to open debates on managerial and societal challenges linked to logistics strategies and, more broadly, to inter-organizational relations.

“…Stercken (2015) FabLabs One of the more well-known labs is FabLab, for Fabrication Laboratory. They are physical places or workshops of "rapid prototyping of physical objects," "intelligent or not ", where machines, tools and computers are shared in order to carry out projects, individually or collectively (Buclet 2015;Lallement 2015;Bouvier-Patron 2015;Eychenne 2012;Bosqué 2015b). The first Fablab was started at the end of the 1990s, in the Center for Bits & Atoms of the Massachusetts Institute of Technologies (MIT).…”

“…That is why, on the one hand, space related to maker movement appears like a place of counterculture, offering a self-managed and anti-capitalist vision of technical and scientific knowledge. On another hand, they are places of libertarian resistance to surveillance and state control (Goldenberg 2014;Bouvier-Patron 2015). But for authors, these assumptions are more complex than they were put forward.…”

The aim of this paper is to explore benefits and critics of the maker movement, in the perspective of its adoption in African context. The method used is a literature review, which reveals that the maker movement is embodied in hacker ethics, DIY and free software ideologies. These ideologies bring values like openness, sharing, inclusion, democratization, and collaboration which are the core of the social, economic and political benefits of the maker movement. Even if these benefits are infiltrated by capitalism, the quest of cognitive justice and the Commons philosophy, seems to be the right epistemological tools for the adoption of the maker movement in Africa.
