Using sigma and beta convergence methods, this study tests economic convergence in Turkish NUTS-2 regions between 2004 …-2011. The findings of sigma convergence analysis show that the interregional income gap decreases during economic recession … periods and increases during economic expansion periods. The beta convergence results obtained by the cross-sectional and …

We examine economic convergence among subnational regions of Bangladesh over the period 1992-2013. Unavailability of … literature, we use night lights intensity as a proxy for local economic activity to test the convergence hypothesis. Our results … show the existence of both absolute and conditional convergence in night lights intensity, but with a very long half …

Fiscal transfer development across the world today has been in part driven by assertions of a supposed ‘economic dividend’ linked with the devolved financial spending. There is, however, little empirical evidence to validate these assertions in Kenya. It is against this background that this...
