Abstract
Small island nations face some unique challenges and opportunities when attempting to foster economic development. Limited size and resources, relative isolation, and lack of access to capital and information can often make it more difficult for such states to develop a viable economic base (Baldacchino, 1999). Those that do succeed, however, can often provide important lessons for other nations in similar circumstances. The Republic of Mauritius is one country that has been able to create a sustainable economic structure, despite its location in the middle of the Indian Ocean, over a thousand kilometers from any of the surrounding continents of Africa, Asia or Australia.
