Abstract
While some may say the advancement and growth of technology in ireland is a more recent development, say within the last decade, it can actually be traced back to the 1950's. Many people still think of ireland as a group of country farmers and small town people, but it is quite the opposite. The citizens of ireland have been advancing and expanding as a whole. Just as in America, you will now see people in ireland emailing and working in large "dot.com" companies with the moving in of companies such as IBM and Microsoft. It would not be a stretch to say the introduction of these technologies has had an effect on the people of ireland, but one could argue for both sides on whether it is a positive effect or a negative one. The causes of ireland's growth are the subject of some debate, but credit has been primarily given to free market capitalism: low corporate taxation; decades of investment in higher education; a low-cost labor market; a policy of restraint in government spending; and EU membership, or the development of the celtic tiger.
