| Abstract: | This article assesses convergence in output per head across regions in the European Community, for the period 1975-90. The authors use three alternative methodologies to measure convergence, which yield consistent results. The authors observe that there are strong differences in the pattern of convergence across sub-periods and across subsets of regions. If the south of Europe seems to catch up in the early 1980s, it stagnates, at best, in the second part of the eighties. |
