Abstract: Abstract The concepts of entrepreneurial bootstrapping and bricolage study identical problems; however, there exists a lack of integration between the two. Entrepreneurial bootstrapping and bricolage are resourcefulness behaviors that could potentially be critical dynamic capabilities that help firms accumulate, reconfigure and recombine resources to adapt to the dynamic and resource-constrained environment. This paper aims to focus on the missing integration of the two behaviors by investigating their convergence systematically using published literature. The study involves a bibliometric co-citation, bibliographic coupling, network, and Theory, Context, Characteristics, Methodology analysis to understand the existing literature more methodically to get a comprehensive picture of the behaviors. The results have provided more clarity on the conceptual convergence of these behaviors by analyzing their intellectual structures and research trends. The two entrepreneurial behaviors exhibit a mutual contribution to each other's literature, suggesting scholars to explore a probable integration of the two pieces of literature in future studies.
