- PublicationDevelopmental Immigration in the Republic of Ireland and TaiwanBoth the Republic of Ireland and Taiwan have followed distinct developmental nation-building projects of economic development since the 1950s. Both late- developing countries have since transformed from predominantly agricultural societies to ones characterized by the rapid expansion of human capital and high levels of recent immigration. The main focus of the paper is upon explaining the influence of Irish developmental goals and choices upon recent immigration policy. Irish choices are contextualized by reference to similarities and differences with Taiwan. This approach highlights the role of national ideological and political influences on economic goals, responses to globalization, and immigration policies.
