| Abstract | This note aims to show that an inverse and statistically relationship between per capita growth rates and initial per capita income levels is also observed, in the Brazilian case, when data for the period 1939-1995 are used in the conventional convergence tests. It is argued that those results, however, do not imply that a process of absolute convergence is under way. Estimates of the long run distribution implied by the recent growth trends point towards further reductions in the interstate income inequality, but also suggest that the relative per capita incomes of a significant number of states and the number of “very poor” and “poor” states were, in 1995, already quite close to their steady state values. |
