Regional income disparities and convergence clubs in Indonesia: new district-level evidence

Journal of the Asia Pacific Economy, 2021
This article aims to re-examine the regional convergence hypothesis on income in Indonesia over the 2000–2017 period. By applying a non-linear dynamic factor model, this article tests the club convergence hypothesis using a novel dataset of income at the
