Regional Openness, Income Growth, and Disparity across Major Indian States during 1980-2004
Published By: IEG on eSS | Published Date: May, 23 , 2010As a country progressively engages in international trade, its factors of production
will increasingly enter into the export sector, where their return is higher, compared
to the import competing sector. At the regional level too, those states which can
attune their production structure to international demands earn higher than other
states, grow at a faster rate. Further, if the newly industrial states concentrate more on those sectors, a trend of regional convergence will be discernible. [IEG Working Paper No. 304] URL: [http://www.iegindia.org/]
