  <abstract>Tests several hypotheses about the factors that differentiate small countries in terms of their economic performance.  Concludes that small countries have relied for competitive advantage on industries which place a premium on stability and infrastructural quality.  Notes that success in these industries requires integration into world markets, which brings with it exogenous risks.</abstract>
