“…In a typical organization finding suppliers and customers of these materials is under the purview of supply chain management professionals. To make an effective industrial symbiosis relationship, green supply chain management is a prerequisite [26,27]. Within industrial symbiosis the goal is to make waste flows into value adding flows of material, energy and other productive resources.…”

Purpose -To explore how the flow of moral responsibility in supply chains can be understood through an analysis of material, monetary, and information flows.Design/methodology/approach -Social responsibility, foliated networks, and morality are used to present a conceptual framework that suggests responsibility links in supply chains.Findings -By understanding the flows of material, money and information, it is possible to see how different types (liable and political) of responsibility can be identified. Conventional supply chain flows are thus connected with moral responsibility.Research implications/limitations -Responsibility issues in supply chain management need to include supply chain links created by monetary and information flows, as well as material flows.Practical implications -Supply chain actors need to consider responsibility across their entire supply chain, which includes material, monetary and information flows.Originality/value -Foliated transportation networks, moral disengagement, and different types of responsibility are combined in a novel way to facilitate a better understanding of responsibility in supply chains.

“…A prevalent element is managerial support, which is also often mentioned in quality management (e.g., Womack and Jones, 1996;Carter and Jennings, 2002). Managers are, among other things, responsible for economic allocation (Côté et al, 2008). Financial distribution can help promote an internal consensus towards business sustainability (Mamic, 2005) and is evident in both a sound organizational culture (Carter and Rogers, 2008) and a reduction of silo mentality (Lee and Kim, 2009).…”

STRUCTURED ABSTRACTPurpose: This describes and discusses a balance model of theoretical business sustainability, in order to leverage the inferior side, so as to enhance performance.Design/Methodology/approach: A conceptual description and discussion are provided; along with an empirical depiction. Findings:The empirical illustration presents one organization that embodies the goals of theoretical business sustainability in the marketplace and society. Research implications:Further research is needed to enhance our understanding of the phenomenon and performance of business sustainability in supply chains. Practical implications:Findings highlight that there is no justification for practitioners to strive consistently for anything other than theoretical business sustainability, and stakeholders need to push organizations in that direction.Originality/Value: The paper contributes to our understanding of what should be done and why business sustainability performance should be improved in supply chains.
