A DETERMINATION OF NATIONAL ADVANTAGE

National advantage is assessed within the contexts of each of four elements of the environment of national advantage: (1) factor conditions, (2) demand conditions, (3) related and supporting industries, and (4) firm strategy, structure, and rivalry.

Within this context, the national advantage environment frequently is referred to as the national diamond.
