摘要 This paper examines the impact of location−bound advantage on the internationalization
     strategy of multinational enterprises (MNEs). The extant research literature suggests that an
     advantage’s location boundedness may be driven by: the nature of the firm advantage;
     organiza− tional embeddedness, and environmental embeddedness. We posit that these
     different drivers of location boundedness exert different impacts on internationalization
     strategies. Our empirical results reveal that organizational embeddedness lowers the breadth
     of internationalization of MNEs, and increases the tendency of these firms to employ a global
     strategy. We also find that MNEs whose advantages are tacit and complex have a lower depth
     of internationalization and are more likely to expand into culturally similar countries. Finally,
     our results show that MNEs whose advantages are highly embedded in the home
     environment tend to adopt a multi−domestic strategy and decentralized organizational
     structures.
