Abstract: Abstract Among the regional convergence studies that flourished in the economic literature during the 90s, the European Union dimension received increasing attention. Different reasons can be given for this upsurge in interest: the desire to try out some new tools of analysis; interest in the effects of the Single Market Program on the question of European regional inequalities; the opportunity to establish the effectiveness of the Structural Funds Reform; and more.
