Century-long dynamics and convergence of income inequality among the US states

Vladimir Arcabic et al.

Summary: The paper analyzes the convergence of income inequality among US states from 1917 to 2012, finding weak evidence of convergence during this period.

Innovation without Regional Development? The Complex Interplay of Innovation, Institutions, and Development

Pedro Marques et al.

Summary: This article argues that regional innovation concepts drawn from advanced regions have led to inadequate narratives about less-developed regions. The authors suggest that understanding the role of formal dynamics is essential in avoiding culturally deterministic explanations of regional development, and that innovation at the firm level is not sufficient for development. They also highlight alternative policies to the current innovation-based, export-based development models.
