Análisis de convergencia absoluta y condicional en productividad entre las manufacturas urbanas mexicanas: 1975-1998
In particular, this study replicates the methodology proposed in Barro and Sala-i-Martin (1995) for the purpose of identifying absolute convergence. Also, the methodology proposed by Cermeño (2001) is applied with the objective of evaluating the existence of conditional convergence. The convergence...

| Sumario: | In particular, this study replicates the methodology proposed in Barro and Sala-i-Martin (1995) for the purpose of identifying absolute convergence. Also, the methodology proposed by Cermeño (2001) is applied with the objective of evaluating the existence of conditional convergence. The convergence rate is estimated in terms of profit per worker at the level of manufactured products in Mexico's sixty major metropolitan areas during the period from 1975 to 1998, based on information provided by factory censuses. The intention of this study is to contribute toward advancing in quantitative analysis of urban economics. The results indicate that there is a relatively slow convergence rate in productivity among Mexican urban manufactured products, however it is similar to the benchmark of 2% annually that has been found in other studies. |
