dc.description.abstract | In the paper an attempt is made to answer the question if the process of convergence between
Polish voivodeships exists. More precisely, the objective of the research is β-convergence.
Its existence means that the countries in which the initial level of GDP per capita is low, develop
faster than countries with higher initial level of income. In this case a catch-up effect is observed,
which equalizes the levels of income.
As a tool of analysis dynamic panel data models are applied. Two alternative estimation
methods were applied: Arellano - Bond first-differenced GMM and Blundell – Bond system GMM.
The main conclusion from the research is the lack of concurrent tendency of GDP per capita
between Polish voivodeships. The estimate of the parameter β that decides the existence and
strength of the convergence shows that there exists a divergent tendency in GDP per capita
between voivodeships. | pl_PL |
