摘要

人道主义后勤(HL)是一个相对较新的研究领域,需要明确的界限和确定的基本观点。最近发生的灾害表明,人道主义后勤的范围正在不断扩大,例如以现金为基础的干预措施、外包给商业公司以及当地社区的更多参与。这些变化意味着必须仔细审查人道主义援助的旧定义,并确定是否需要对其进行调整。这一步非常重要,因为不适当的定义会造成:(i) 对什么是 HL 的误解;(ii) 对该领域的研究目标缺乏统一和理解;(iii) 对什么是贡献的混淆;(iv) 理论上的模糊,从而掩盖了有希望的研究方向,割裂了知识,阻碍了科学研究的进展。根据结构化审查,我们发现 2005 年左右的三个定义在迄今为止的文献中占主导地位。我们发现了这些定义中存在的各种问题,然后开展了专家征询过程,以开发和验证关于 HL 的最新基础观点。最后,我们利用文献分析了从专家那里收集到的关于什么是 "好定义 "的数据。由此,我们提出了 HL 的修订定义和相应属性。最后,我们提出了未来研究的重要途径。

Revisiting the definition of humanitarian logistics

Revisiting the definition of humanitarian logistics

Humanitarian logistics (HL) is a relatively new research area that requires clear boundaries and a defined foundational perspective. Recent disasters have shown that the scope of HL is expanding, as in cases of cash-based interventions, outsourcing to commercial companies, and stronger involvement of local communities. These changes imply the importance of scrutinizing the old definitions of HL and determining whether they require adaptation. This step is important considering that inadequate definitions create (i) misconceptions about what HL is, (ii) a lack of unity and understanding of the field's research goals, (iii) confusion about what constitutes a contribution, and (iv) theoretical ambiguity, which masks promising research directions, fragments knowledge, and retards the progress of scientific research. Based on a structured review, we found that three definitions from around 2005 have predominated in the literature so far. We identified various issues with these definitions and then conducted an expert elicitation process to develop and validate an updated foundational perspective on HL. Finally, we analyzed the data collected from experts using the literature on what constitutes a “good definition.” This led us to propose a revised definition and accompanying properties for HL. We conclude the article by offering important avenues for future research.
