Real Wages and Relative Factor Prices in the Third World 1820-1940: The Mediterranean Basin

By 1914, there were very big economic gaps between the European industrial core and countries around the Mediterranean Basin. When did the gaps appear? Can they be explained by lags in the diffusion of the industrial revolution after 1770, or did the gaps appear much earlier? What about the first great globalization boom after about 1870? Which countries in the Mediterranean Basin started catching up, which fell further behind, and which held their own?
