dc.description.abstract | As is well known, average living standards in Ireland are much lower than in
most of our EC partners. It is of considerable interest to Ireland whether,
and in what way, its living standards will catch up or fall further behind as
Europe becomes more integrated. The issue is understandably at the heart
of the government's strategy towards the EC, and was at the forefront of its
diplomatic efforts to secure assurances on economic and social cohesion at
the Maastricht summit last December. The issue has also been the subject
of a number of valuable studies (see especially Bradley et al., 1992; NESC,
1989; O'Donnell, 1991). Yet I believe that we need to think a great deal more
about this issue, both at the levels of analysis and of policy. My address will
have served its purpose if it gives an impetus to such thinking. | en |
