The determinants and dynamics of regional convergence in the EU

Arvanitopoulos, Theodoros; Lazarou, Nicholas-Joseph - 2023

In this study, we employ the pairwise stochastic convergence approach to identify the pairs of NUTS2 regions for all 28 EU Member States that exhibit co-movement in their growth dynamics, over the period 1980-2018. We then use the observed stochastic convergence trajectories to assess the role...

Economic integration and growth at the margin : a space-time incremental impact analysis

Mitze, Timo; Breidenbach, Philipp - 2018

We use the case of EU enlargement in 2004 to investigate the impact of economic integration on regional income growth. Being particularly interested in studying the effects ‘at the margin’, we track the relative performance of regions adjacent to both sides of the integration border...

The emergence of new regional convergence clubs in a Nordic and Baltic perspective : 50th Congress of the European Regional Science Association

Cornett, Andreas P.; Sørensen, Nils Karl - 2010 - First draft

The spatial patterns of changes in economic diversion and convergence have become more blurred in the last decades. International disparities between nations have diminished. At the same time intra-national disparities have increased in most European countries. In the search to identify the...

Enhancing regional convergence in the European Union

Pina, Álvaro - 2021

Progress in regional convergence in the EU has been uneven over the last two decades. While Central and Eastern Europe has been catching up, Southern Europe has often lost ground, especially after the global financial crisis. Furthermore, within most countries, gaps between large cities and...

The EU, a growth engine? : the impact of European integration on economic growth in central eastern Europe

Mann, Katja - 2015

This paper investigates how the European integration process of central eastern European countries, which has been taking place since the 1990's, affects their GDP growth. Based on an augmented Solow model, I estimate a convergence equation for a panel of ten countries over 16 years (1995-2010)....
