Ideas Determining Convergence Clubs Ideas Determining Convergence Clubs Ideas Determining Convergence Clubs
This paper develops a model of cross-country growth and distribution dynamics where sharing ideas is important. The model shows clusters of economies emerging from deliberate choices made in equilibrium. It characterizes how, over time, the cross-section distribution of countries stratifies into distinct income classes.
متن کاملTests for Convergence Clubs
In many applications common in testing for convergence the number of cross-sectional units is large and the number of time periods are few. In these situations tests which are founded upon an omnibus null hypothesis are characterised by a number of problems. In this paper we consider a broad class of tests of convergence based on multivariate time series and panel data methodologies, and track ...
متن کاملIncome Disparities across Chinese Provinces: Revisiting the Convergence-Divergence Debate
The literature on income disparities across China’s provinces suggests that there has been (absolute) divergence in per capita incomes since 1978, a trend which has accelerated since the early 1990s. We contribute to this literature by updating the convergence analyses to include the most recent period (1994-2003). Four methods (beta and sigma convergence, Markov chain and kernel density analys...
متن کاملMixture Models and Convergence Clubs
In this paper we argue that modelling the cross-country distribution of per capita income as a mixture distribution provides a natural framework for the detection of convergence clubs. The framework yields tests for the number of component distributions that are likely to have more power than “bump hunting” tests and includes a natural method of assessing the cross-component immobility necessar...
متن کاملTesting the Convergence Clubs Hypothesis among MENA Countries
T his paper is to study the convergence of per capita income. Convergence clubs hypothesis is one of the forms of convergence hypotheses, implying that countries with the same initial level of economic development, technology, and government policies, tend to be similar in per capita income and thus have a tendency to cluster around a small number of poles. In order to test the hypot...
