Abstract: Despite differences in history and geography, the United States and the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland share similarities in regard to rural development issues. These similarities include restructuring in the agricultural sector, rural outmigration, the need to develop alternative employment opportunities in rural areas, the need for coordination of effort by various agencies involved in rural development, and issues of funding and institutional organization.
