Economic Disparities and Changes in the Convergente of the Romanian NUTS 2 and NUTS 3 Regions
Journal Title: Romanian Review of Regional Studies - Year 2013, Vol 9, Issue 1
Abstract
In this article we use the classic economic variable, the Gross domestic product (GDP) per capita in order to investigate the economic convergence between regions in Romania and between the Romanian regions and EU in the period 2000–2010. The main results confirm that while there is an evident convergence between the country as whole and EU, the inter-regional disparities in Romania has widened, confirming the Williamson hypothesis.
