Resumen
FONSECA-HERNANDEZ, Felipe de Jesús y FELIX-ARMENTA, Jimmy. Regional Economic Growth in Mexico, 1980-2020. Back to the Convergence?. Estud. soc. Rev. aliment. contemp. desarro. reg. [online]. 2023, vol.33, n.61, e231319. Epub 13-Nov-2023. ISSN 2395-9169. https://doi.org/10.24836/es.v33i61.1319.
Objective:
To study absolute convergence for the Mexican states during 1980-2020.
Methodology:
Panel data models are used with the technique used by Barro (2012).
Results:
Very low presence of absolute convergence throughout the period with sigma procyclical divergence.
Limitations:
The data is deflated with the national price index, which may cause regional differences not to be captured.
Conclusions:
Periods of growth in the economy amplify the dispersion of income levels, while periods of contraction have the opposite effect with marked, very unequal regional growth patterns that have led to the consolidation of the northern and central-northern borders and the stagnation of the south.
