Abstract

In a perspective of spatial economics,the paper tests the convergence and formation mechanism of China's regional economic growth.The results of the empirical study are as follows:firstly,from 1985 to 2007,China's regional economic growth displays the absolute β-convergence in the long term,but it does not display absolute β-convergence in the short term,which can not be achieved by OLS;secondly,China's regional economic growth displays conditional β-convergence both in long and short terms,which also can be achieved by OLS.
