Abstract

The so-called "irish miracle" is used in this paper as a case study to evaluate the role of competitive tax policies within the European Union framework. We present a continuous-tiem disequilibrium model to explain the economic growth in Ireland, in order to identify the relative relevance of the tax policy among the set of explaining factors. This model connects tax policy to growth through foreign direct investment.
