Can Costa Rica become Ireland?

The similarites between Costa Rica's future aspirations and Ireland's achievements over the past 20 years are striking.

A highly educated work force, tax breaks to encourage foreign inward investment and government policy to encourage an economic transformation.......a background very similar to Ireland's just 20 years ago.

This very comparison is addressed in the book by Eva Paus, Foreign Investment, Development, and Globalization: Can Costa Rica Become Ireland? New York: Palgrave Macmillan, 2005.

To those familiar with the property boom which took place in Ireland as a direct result of the success of the Irish economic vision and policies this makes Costa Rica an instant lucrative investment opportunity.
