Abstract


In this paper I analyze the distributive effects of development strategies based on export and direct foreign investment. Specifically, I analyze a case study: the distributive eflFects of the development strategy followed by Ireland since the 1960s. A long tradition in the Economics and Sociology of Development has maintained that trade openness has equalitarian distributive effects in developing countries. In this paper I present the theoretical foundation of such a statement and discuss its plausibility in the light of the criticisms raised by new theories of development. The Irish experience provides an extremely appropriate case study to test the propositions derived from both sorts of theories
