Abstract

The question of whether is a tendency for regional convergence has become a central topic for economic research. The time-series of per cápita income in the regions of Spain and European Union are tested for consistency with the neoclassical growth model's prediction. the results for 1955 to 1996 show that disparities persisted among spanish regions with a substantial declining trend up to 1979 and a slight rise thereafter.
