Revisiting income convergence in Turkey: Are there convergence clubs?

PERSISTENCE IN CONVERGENCE AND CLUB FORMATION

open access: yesBulletin of Economic Research, 2018
ABSTRACTIn this paper, we examine the convergence hypothesis using a long memory framework that allows for structural breaks and does not rely on a benchmark country using both univariate and multivariate estimates of the long memory parameter d. Using per capita GDP gaps, we confirm the findings of non‐stationarity and long memory behavior that have ...
