Abstract
The seminal contribution made by John Dunning to the field of strategic management is the development of the eclectic or ownership location internalization (OLI) paradigm, which explains why a firm would choose to exploit its ownership specific advantages in another country by internalizing their use inside the firm, rather than by means of licensing or contractual partnerships.
