ReShore: Rebuilding Trust, Resilience, and Equity in a Fractured World
In an era when empty shelves and stalled factories became symbols of global fragility, ReShore redefines how we think about supply chains and resilience.
Drawing on firsthand experience as a National Academies Jefferson Science Fellow and a contributor to national policies such as the CHIPS Act and the National Strategy for Advanced Manufacturing, the author offers a guide for leaders, policymakers and innovators navigating an interconnected world.
Unlike traditional supply chain texts, which focus on technical operations or efficiency metrics, ReShore emphasises the human and strategic side of supply chains: trust, transparency and adaptability. Disruption is now the norm, not the exception.
Open ↔ Trusted, area by area
For each area, the book contrasts what an open supply chain risks with what a trusted one secures.
