 Convergence (Economics) - Economics Dictionary of Arguments
 
Convergence: In economics, convergence refers to the hypothesis that poorer economies tend to grow faster than richer ones, eventually "catching up" in terms of per capita income and living standards. This is often attributed to diminishing returns to capital in rich countries and the ability of poorer countries to adopt existing technologies and practices. However, this convergence is often "conditional," depending on factors like policies and institutions. See also Economic policies, Institutions, International trade, Technology, Competition.
