Tetrads are more conducive to studying the dynamic nature of supply networks compared to triads. For instance, the balance theory assumes there is equilibrium in the triadic structure when, in fact, relationships are constantly in flux in networks. Tetrads help us examine how a network is embedded in a larger network, how factions or subgroups operate in networks, and how strong and weak ties play out in a network.
期刊介绍:
The mission of the Journal of Purchasing & Supply Management is to publish original, high-quality research within the field of purchasing and supply management (PSM). Articles should have a significant impact on PSM theory and practice. The Journal ensures that high quality research is collected and disseminated widely to both academics and practitioners, and provides a forum for debate. It covers all subjects relating to the purchase and supply of goods and services in industry, commerce, local, national, and regional government, health and transportation.
