Is there convergence of Russia's regions? : exploring the empirical evidence ; 1995 - 2010
Lehmann, Hartmut; Silvagni, Maria Giulia - 2013
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 …

Lehmann, Hartmut; Oščepkov, Aleksej Ju.; Silvagni, … - 2020
In this paper, we study convergence in per capita gross regional products across Russian regions in the period from … model to analyze the regional convergence process in the Russian case. We also take into account possible spatial effects … and do a series of other robustness checks. Our main estimates establish a convergence rate of around 2% per year. While …
