Transportation Journal, 2007, vol. 46, issue 3, 22-39

Abstract: This article presents a broad review of horizontal cooperation in transport and logistics. This topic is fast gaining momentum in the logistics sector and is thus highly relevant from a practical point of view. Moreover, horizontal cooperation is also interesting from a theoretical perspective because it can be approached by various disciplines, offering a forum for economists, operations researchers, and psychologists, among others. The purpose of this article is to provide a starting point for intensified future research on the topic of horizontal cooperation. In addition to a discussion of various types of horizontal cooperation and closely related literature, the drivers, impediments, and facilitators are reviewed and supported by an extensive bibliography.
