Systems Theory and Logistical Management to Sustain e-Business Propositions

Resumo

This paper presents and integrates an overview of systems’ theory and supply chain management developments in the era of network emergence, thus complementing technological e-business approaches. It concludes that e-business, as developed and presented for several authors, is far from reality and from what companies are needing, because it does not present genuine innovative concepts and, also, because it is too much technology focused.
