Introduction
When I was thinking about that I would like to write in individual work I checked a lot of information about different regions. But then Ireland attracted my attention. I found this country interesting because Ireland to mid-80s tried unsuccessfully to find ways to accelerate economic development. After joining the European Union in 1973, the country was for a long time one of the weakest in the composition of the Union, with a higher rate of inflation in Western Europe. Period to 1987 is characterized by the inability to find enough ways for developing the country. After the reforms of 1987, when the government decided to reduce budget expenditures in order to find ways of macroeconomic stabilization. Further development of the economy of Ireland is characterized by success. And nowadays according to KOF Index of Globalization in 2014 Ireland is the most globalized country in the world with globalization index 92,17.
The country has acquired a number of strong competitive advantages, which provided her status as one of the world 's great centers of innovation. Investments in technology and in training and attracting talent allowed Ireland to become in a short period of economic and technological outsider into a real "growth machine" - 5 years (from 1995-2000) Ireland 's GDP increased annually by 10%. Although growth rates fell after 2000, which is mainly due to external economic developments, this figure remained 5 times higher than in other developed countries of the EU.

    Some of the measures taken by government, under this category, include lowering of income tax and abrogation of direct controls on free movement of capital, on prices and on minimum wages. Controls on exchange rate movement and price were abolished immediately. In 1978-79, the standard rate of income tax was 35 percent which was gradually reduced to 26 percent in 1988-89. During the same period personal allowances rose 23 percent, in real terms. Also, government took some steps, reluctantly, towards liberalisation of some markets. For example, in 1986 stock market was opened for domestic and foreign traders.…

    Firstly, one obvious difference between Northern and Southern Europe shows in the economy. They have opposite economy style. For example, according to Alderman (2010), Europe has two different speed of economy; one is north, the other is south. She said that north can shows easier and faster economic growth than south. The reason is that north Europe already experienced economic growth by reducing government services and collecting higher taxes. However it will be a challenge to south Europe that government needs to spend to boost demand. In addition, the Europe had public debt over 60 % at the end of 2010. Especially Greece that is southeast European has highest European debt union with 142.8 % and followed with Sothern Europe ("cnn.com," 2011).

    The case of the software industry in Ireland is particularly interesting as it is a unique example of a government led innovation in attracting and fostering the development of a knowledge based industry. Using a previous work of Eileen Drew (1994) as a starting point it tracks the growth of the industry in the 1990’s and into the 21st century during a boom period in the Irish economy known as the Celtic Tiger. Growth is measured by macro-economic factors such as employment and exports. In this 15 year period Ireland increased employment in the software industry from 8,000 to over 30,000 people and its software exports from 1 to 15 billion euro.…
