Abstract: The aim of this work is to analize the conditional convergence of regional income in Spain and the decisive factors of different stationary states. For that, it is utiliced panel data technique using information published by «Fundación BBV (1955-1997)». For the productivity, it is followed the shift-share decomposition to separate the regional, specialization and structural change effects. The results show the existence of conditional convergence between spanish regions. The spectrum of stationary states obtained is explained, in order to factoral endowment, by the private capital and the human capital. The public capital is only significative after 1985. As for the regional income components, it is the productivity the determinant of regional stationary states. The structural change is the decisive element for the growing period, 1955-1975. After economic crisis of seventies, the structural change is giving up its protagonism to regional effects.
