convergence speed of per capita income among municipios and test whether spatial externalities are linked to local income growth …. Conditionally on structural characteristics, we find evidence of convergence between municipios and of positive spatial dependence …

This paper estimates the impact of public investment on regional economic growth and convergence at the NUTS III level … capita on regional economic growth – but not on convergence – which also generates considerable spillover effects. However …

This paper assesses convergence in output per head across regions in the European Community (EC), for the period 1975 …<196>90. We use three alternative methodologies to measure convergence, which yield consistent results. We observe that there are … strong differences in the pattern of convergence across sub-periods and across subsets of regions. If Southern Europe seemed …

This paper analyzes convergence in per capita gross regional product of Russia's regions during the period 1995 …-2010, when regional data are available. Using a panel regression framework we find no evidence for beta-convergence. Instead we … regional product confirm this outcome as do non-parametric estimates of convergence, namely estimates using Markov transition …

long-run real income convergence and derive 67 comparable effect sizes. 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 …
