چکیده

تایید فرضیه همگرایی بین استانهای کشور و نقش آن در حذف عدم تعادلهای موجود بین مناطق و نیل به توازن منطقه‌ای یکی از موضوعات مهم مورد بررسی در حوزه اقتصاد کلان است .
هدف اصلی مقاله حاضر بررسی فرضیه همگرایی مطلق و همگرایی شرطی درآمدی بین استانهای ایران طی دوره زمانی 89-1379 با تکیه بر داده‌های تابلویی است .این موضوع به تفکیک کل استانهای کشور، گروه ده استان با درآمد سرانه پایین، گروه ده استان با درآمد سرانه میانی و گروه ده استان با درآمد سرانه بالا مورد بررسی قرار گرفته است .
نتایج حاکی از آن است که هر دو نوع فرضیه همگرایی مطلق و همگرایی شرطی درآمدی در هر یک از گروه های فوق مورد تایید قرار گرفته است. به منظور بررسی همگرایی شرطی از متغیرهای توضیحی نظیر تعداد شاغلین استان، شاخص موجودی سرمایه استان و درجه صنعتی بودن استفاده شده است٬ با این توضیح که متغیر درجه صنعتی بودن تنها در حالت کل استانها و گروه ده استان دارای بالاترین درآمد سرانه واقعی دارای ضریب معنی دار بوده است .

چکیده [English]

Confirmation of convergence hypothesis among provinces, its role in removing divergence among regions and achieving regional convergence is one of the important issues in macroeconomics. The aim of the present study is to examine absolute and conditional income convergence hypotheses among Iranian provinces during the period 2000-2010 using panel data. The hypotheses are tested for the whole provinces, ten- province group with high per capita income, ten- province group with middle per capita income, and ten- province group with low per capita income. The results indicated that the both hypotheses of absolute and conditional income convergence in the whole provinces and the all groups are confirmed. To examine the conditional convergence, the explanatory variables the number of employed people, the index of capital stock, and the degree of industrialization were used, implying that the variable degree of industrialization is statistically significant in whole provinces and ten- province group with high per capita income.
