The precision-weighted estimate of beta convergence … is more consistent with endogenous self-reinforcing growth than with neoclassical convergence. Introducing a net … migration variable in a growth regression increases the estimate of beta convergence slightly. Studies that use panel models or …

This paper studies the role of internal migration in income convergence across regions in Japan. Neoclassical theory … predicts that migration should have been an important source of convergence, but regression results suggest otherwise. The … shown that, although this effect did slow down convergence, its magnitude was too small to account for the discrepancy …
