Abstract

This study seeks to identify the determinants of economic and environmental sustainability through green supply chain management (GSCM) and explore the moderating role of blockchain adoption in the relationships between GSCM and economic and environmental sustainability. The theoretical model was developed based on a natural‐resource‐based view and stakeholder theory. The structural equation modeling‐fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis (SEM‐fsQCA) was used to analyze the data, which were gathered from 179 organizations in Malaysia. The SEM results showed that green technology, green marketing, and customer pressure are the factors that affect GSCM and enhance economic and environmental sustainability. The fsQCA findings supported SEM results by indicating that a combination of customer pressure, green technology, green marketing, and GSCM was necessary to achieve the highest level of an organization's economic and environmental sustainability. Moreover, the assessment of the moderating effect highlighted that blockchain adoption strengthened the association between GSCM and organization economic and environmental sustainability. The findings of this study help managers and organizations understand how blockchain adoption can enhance economic and environmental sustainability.

探索区块链的采用对组织的经济和环境可持续性的调节作用：SEM-fsQCA 技术

本研究旨在通过绿色供应链管理（GSCM）确定经济和环境可持续性的决定因素，并探讨区块链的采用在绿色供应链管理与经济和环境可持续性之间关系中的调节作用。理论模型的建立基于自然资源观和利益相关者理论。数据采用结构方程建模-模糊集定性比较分析法（SEM-fsQCA）进行分析，数据来自马来西亚的 179 家组织。SEM 结果显示，绿色技术、绿色营销和客户压力是影响 GSCM 并提高经济和环境可持续性的因素。FsQCA 的研究结果支持 SEM 的结果，表明客户压力、绿色技术、绿色营销和 GSCM 是实现组织经济和环境可持续发展最高水平的必要条件。此外，对调节效应的评估突出表明，区块链的采用加强了 GSCM 与组织经济和环境可持续性之间的关联。本研究的结果有助于管理者和组织了解区块链的采用如何增强经济和环境的可持续性。
