The method of regression is a fixed effects panel data estimated through weighted least squares, nested tests, and models with dummies to interregional comparison. After to control by differences in the steady state, results suggest a process of regional convergence along 1940-2015 at annual speeds between 1.2% and 4.6% for the several samples. Advances on education and health stand out as important factors for regional growth. In the open economy stage, the speed of convergence has risen among states that are more exposed to globalization, while it has slowed down for those less exposed; therefore, globalization is related to the regional convergence process.","PeriodicalId":43766,"journal":{"name":"Estudios De Economia","volume":"58 1","pages":"267-295"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2020-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87648394","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
