Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: Until the middle of the 1990s, Ireland was a poor country and became the Celtic Tiger. Drawing on the literature on good governance, Barry (2006) summarizes that the merit system in the civil service, fiscal transparency, social partnership for industrial relations, government organizational learning capacity, ideological transformation of political parties, embedded autonomy of the state, strong development agencies were important to make the transformation possible. _x000d__x000d_The same factors could be used to explain the more limited success of the transformation of the Canadian provincial state of Quebec between 1959 and the early 1980s. Quebec and Ireland have more in common historically. Both have been British colonies where the Catholic Church was a dominant institution. In both cases, the power of the Catholic Church disappeared rapidly. _x000d__x000d_Considering the number of variables listed above, a dual case study approach is used to draw lessons on economic policy and public administration. We focus on reforms of the state apparatus. Conclusions for further research on economic policy and public administration will be suggested from this research.
