Abstract

This paper analyzes the phenomenon of cooperation in modern supply chains in the light of Game Theory. We first provide a discussion on the meaning of cooperation in supply chains, its motives, outcomes and barriers. We then highlighted the applicability of Cooperative Game Theory as methodology for analyzing cooperation in supply chains. Second, we review recent studies that analyze the cooperation in supply chains by means of cooperative game theory. A special emphasis will be given inventory centralizations games. Finally, gaps in the literature are identified to clarify and to suggest future research opportunities.
