Globalization and Economic Convergence

Competition & Change, 1997
Convergence among national economies is viewed by a growing number of observers as an inevitable result of increasing global integration of product and financial markets. Yet there is reason to doubt that globalization has yet brought about, or will in the future bring about, the degree of convergence assumed by some.

Measuring Economic Convergence

International Journal of Finance & Economics, 1997
The sustainability of the ERM and the feasibility of EMU is dependent upon the economies of the EC achieving the appropriate degree of economic convergence. One of the difficulties in determining this is the absence of a broadly acceptable measure of economic convergence. In this paper we consider possible definitions of convergence for time series. To

Economic Reform, Growth and Convergence in China

The Econometrics Journal, 2008
Summary: We propose a new concept of convergence which is based on the metric entropy measure recently proposed by \textit{C.W. Granger} [J. Time Ser. Anal. 25, No. 5, 649--669 (2004; Zbl 1062.62178)] to investigate economic convergence in China. This entropy measure compares whole distributions of growth rates across individual provinces.

Speed of Convergence And Economic Policy Instruments

ECMS 2009 Proceedings edited by J. Otamendi, A. Bargiela, J. L. Montes, L. M. Doncel Pedrera, 2009
This article presents an innovative methodology to empirically evaluate the response of the rate of convergence in the neoclassical growth model to changes in the conditional factors. We apply this method to test the sensitivity of the speed of convergence in the EU-15 during the period 1980-2002 to increases in human and public capital.

The Convergence of Economic Developments

Studies in Nonlinear Dynamics & Econometrics, 2012
After an introduction on the mathematical memory formalisms and on their use in many branches of science, we consider a model the evolutions of m > 2 economies yi(t), where we assume that their interaction is based on the differences of the values of their evolution status.

THE PROBLEM OF ECONOMIC CONVERGENCE [PDF]

Revista economica, 2012
Real convergence represents an essential objective for Romania`s integration into the EU. The filling of the gap between Romania and the EU at a quick pace is not possible only through market forces, that might cause divergence and polarisation. For this purpose special tools, like cohesion, are required.

Income Inequality and Economic Convergence in Turkey

Transition Studies Review, 2006
Even though the convergence of regional per capita incomes has been a highly debated issue internationally, empirical evidence regarding Turkey is both limited and contradictory. This paper is an attempt to investigate regional income inequality and convergence dynamics in Turkish gross domestic product.

Conceptual Divergence, Functionalism, and the Economics of Convergence

2008
Abstract This chapter takes a broader perspective on the issues of convergence and divergence between legal systems. It examines why different legal systems diverge. It illustrates that the basic proposition that the existing state of affairs is not fortuitous and will usually turn out to be in equilibrium: in other words, that it is the
