Abstract

The aim of this study is to test the relative convergence hypothesis in Ecuador at cantonal level, considering a set of explanatory variables. Following Barro and Sala-i-Martin (1991), a model of nonlinear least squares (NLMS) is estimated using cross-sectional data from 2007 to 2012. The main findings indicate absolute convergence rate of 1,37% per annum between municipalities. With the conditioning factors (illiteracy rate, percentage of households with electricity grid, the average number of children, agricultural production, manufacturing and remittances as a percentage of cantonal gross value added) the convergence rate is reduced to 1,12% annually, indicating that differences in these variables explain a considerable part of the slow territorial convergence in Ecuador.
厄瓜多尔的条件收敛假设:州层面的分析
本研究的目的是在考虑一组解释变量的情况下,在国家层面上检验厄瓜多尔的相对收敛假设。继Barro和Sala-i-Martin(1991)之后,利用2007年至2012年的截面数据估计了非线性最小二乘(NLMS)模型。主要研究结果表明,城市之间的绝对趋同率为每年1.37%。加上条件因素(文盲率、有电网的家庭百分比、平均儿童人数、农业生产、制造业和汇款占州总增加值的百分比),趋同率每年降至1.12%,表明这些变量的差异在很大程度上解释了厄瓜多尔缓慢的地区趋同。
