Sadiku M: BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGY AND ITS
APPLICATIONS

BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGY AND ITS APPLICATIONS

Routledge Advances in Management and Business Studies

Sustainability has become a key priority for organisations across business markets and networks, yet understanding how it is enacted within and across business relationships remains an important challenge. At the heart of these relationships are humans: people who interpret sustainability, make decisions, negotiate priorities, develop relationships, and translate sustainability ambitions into practice. This book explores the human side of sustainability in business-to-business (B2B) marketing, foregrounding the role of human actors in relationships, organisations, networks, and wider systems.Across five parts, the book brings together conceptual perspectives and empirical studies examining how managers, employees, and other actors understand and enact sustainability in diverse B2B contexts. The chapters address topics including sensemaking, sustainable business relationships, circularity transitions, competence development, employee behaviour, humanistic management, governance, social sustainability, and sustainable procurement. Together, the contributions reveal sustainability as a multilevel and relational process shaped by the interplay between human agency, organisational practices, business relationships, and broader network and institutional contexts.The book will be of interest to researchers, academics, and students in B2B marketing, business relationships and networks, and sustainability, as well as managers and practitioners seeking to understand how sustainability is interpreted, negotiated, and implemented in practice.

Routledge Research in Strategic Management

Contemporary organizations operate in environments defined by systemic openness and deep interdependence across economic, technological, institutional and socio-political systems. This book introduces the concept of strategic exposure to explain how firms navigate these interconnected fields, where competitive advantage depends not on defending isolated positions, but on governing exposure and adapting to continuous change. This book offers three integrative frameworks: the Strategic Field Framework, the Strategy Parachute, and the Renewal Loop. It provides tools for diagnosing exposure, coordinating across boundaries, and renewing advantage. Grounded in executive interviews, case studies, and pedagogical experiments, it combines conceptual synthesis with real-world insights to explore how organizations manage interdependence, legitimacy pressures, and competitive erosion. Aimed at researchers, scholars and postgraduate students in strategic management, international business, and organization studies, it also offers valuable insights for reflective practitioners and policymakers working in globally interconnected industries. By reframing strategy for open systems, the book provides a fresh perspective on how organizations can thrive in an era of uncertainty and interdependence.

Springer Series in Supply Chain Management

This book analyzes the transformative potential of blockchain technology for supply chains operating under uncertainty, offering actionable frameworks and strategies for sustainable, transparent, and data-driven business networks.It analyzes how blockchain technology can optimize supply chains in uncertain environments. It explores strategic implementations across industries such as oil and gas, renewables, and omni-channel retail, addressing challenges like efficiency, transparency, security, and environmental impact. The book introduces frameworks for component vs. product tracing, two-step authentication models, integrated network design, and traffic uncertainty modeling. Each chapter presents concepotual models and decision-making tools tailored for practitioners and researchers. It examines the use of smart contracts in blockchain-enabled supply chains, showcasing their potential to automate compliance, lower transaction costs, and build trust, while addressing key challenges such as legal enforceability, code vulnerabilities, and cross-jurisdictional governance. Furthermore, it explores synergies between blockchain and complementary technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT), demonstrating how integrated systems can enable real-time tracking, predictive analytics, and autonomous decision-making in complex supply networks. It critically addresses adoption barriers and evaluates sustainability trade-offs, suggesting that these may incentivize green blockchain innovations to mitigate energy consumption concerns. By bridging theoretical foundations with real-world case studies, this book provides actionable strategies for adopting blockchain in complex, dynamic environments.This book is structured to take the reader on a journey from the fundamental concepts of blockchain in supply chains, through its practical applications and optimizations in various industries, and finally to the specific challenges and innovative solutions for implementation.

'Michael Auerbach has one of the most original minds I've ever encountered . . . This is a dazzling and entertaining book . . . But it is also an urgent warning' PATRICK RADDEN KEEFE, author of Empire of Pain A brilliant exploration of the phenomenon of prediction markets that asks: what happens when democracy becomes another commodity? Prediction markets are sweeping the world, fundamentally changing the nature of gambling - and the very ways in which we attempt to divine the future. Posed as binary 'Yes/No' questions about future events, prediction markets allow any difference of opinion - whether on pop culture or politics, wars or assassinations - to be financialised. A regulatory minefield with moral implications that divide nations, governments and bettors, they have proved as effective at accurately predicting the timing of missile strikes as they have at calling the outcomes of elections.But are these markets really a new phenomenon? And what does it mean when those tasked with safeguarding democracy hold financial stakes in its volatility?From Renaissance Rome, where merchants wagered on papal conclaves, through nineteenth-century London's wartime coffee house gossip, to the Pentagon's ill-fated terrorism futures exchange and blockchain-based betting on Polymarket today, The Big Bet tells the gripping five-hundred-year story of a permissive regime that no one designed and no one voted for.Drawing on deep expertise, Michael Auerbach examines how these markets are changing our world, and what they mean for the future where democracy becomes just another commodity to be priced and traded. Because prediction markets are not an anomaly - they are the logical endpoint of a society that has applied market capitalism to every aspect of life. And in a world where everything is a wager and nothing is off limits, knowing where the chips will fall matters more than ever.

Many existing textbooks in behavioural finance take only the perspective of users of financial information, but ignore the implications of judgments during the preparation of financial information. This book uses a holistic approach in examining behavioural accounting and bridges this gap.The book begins by introducing the current knowledge in the emerging area of behavioural accounting and also covers the entire spectrum from the preparation of financial information, auditing, and ultimately, to the interpretation and application of financial information of external users. The comprehensive overview of human elements in accounting makes this book an invaluable resource.
