Abstract
The Republic of Ireland is one of the smallest Member States of the European Union. With just over 3.6 million people it is also one of the least densely developed countries in Europe. Apart from questions of size the country is isolated to the west of Europe, it has been traditionally underdeveloped and has experienced profound difficulties in developing its economy and in finding and accessing markets outside its neighbour, the United Kingdom.
