This is the name given to the world economic order that prevailed for many decades because of the world reorganization produced after the Second World War, with particular geopolitical and geoeconomics areas of influence two victorious great powers, the USA and the USSR. Despite the bipolar world of the cold war dominated by these superpowers, it was always possible to reach agreements with good cooperation and exchange between the least aligned countries.

Abstract
In an increasingly disruptive global environment, marked by the potential development of the Post-New World Economic Order, more innovative, effective, and efficient logistics solutions are demanded. It is necessary to offer radical improvements in logistics services through new models. It is considered necessary to define the new concept of disruptive logistics based on three fundamental pillars: globalization, digitization, and sustainability. This chapter aims to address the new concept, more effective and efficient, in a highly turbulent environment that has become disruptive, with unpredictable, substantial, and impactful changes. The most significant geoeconomics aspects that would condition a hypothetical Post-New World Economic Order are analyzed, the main factors of the global sustainable logistics are studied, and the development of the concepts of Logistics 4.0 and Supply Chain Management 4.0 is reviewed. Finally, as a result, the main aspects of the proposed new concept are analyzed.
