To do so, we perform a two-step procedure, using the log t-test to delineate districts that converge towards the same steady-state condition, and then employing ordinal logistic regression to analyse the role of factors that influence club membership. Our results demonstrate that no global convergence occurred in Hungarian districts between 2001 and 2020 after verifying the presence of six convergence clubs. Our analyses confirm the club convergence hypothesis, finding that clubs’ formation is primarily influenced by initial conditions (initial income, human capital). Stable and persistent inequalities are evident between clubs, which do not seem to be resolved in the long run. The authors propose a clubspecific development toolkit to address these inequalities.}, year = {2024}, eissn = {2064-8243}, pages = {1-34} } @CONFERENCE{MTMT:35325393, title = {Regional conditional convergence in the European Union: the role of spatial spillovers (2004-2021)}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/35325393}, author = {Egri, Zoltán}, booktitle = {ERSA2024 Congress}, unique-id = {35325393}, year = {2024}, pages = {701} } @article{MTMT:35180671, title = {A kelet-közép-európai régiók konvergencia-folyamatainak térökonometriai vizsgálata}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/35180671}, author = {Egri, Zoltán and Lengyel, Imre}, doi = {10.20311/stat2024.08.hu0781}, journal-iso = {STATISZTIKAI SZEMLE}, journal = {STATISZTIKAI SZEMLE}, volume = {102}, unique-id = {35180671}, issn = {0039-0690}, abstract = {Az Európai Unió regionális politikájának egyik fő célja a régiók felzárkózásának elősegítése gazdasági növekedésük támogatásával.

We based our analysis on the urban–rural region types of the EU in the case of 185 regions, identifying predominantly urban, intermediate, and predominantly rural types. We apply Theil Index to examine the development of disparities and test the phenomena with unconditional β-convergence hypothesis. The analysis indicates that the growth of all CEE countries and their regions is faster than the EU14 average; the capitals considerably exceed it, the catch-up of other urban regions is also relatively fast, while it is very slow in the case of other regions. The convergence between the 185 regions is weak, based on the EU region typology it was initially strong between the capitals, moderate in the case of intermediate and rural types, while divergence can be observed in the urban types. The catch-up of less developed regions is very slow despite EU cohesion funding, even though 80% of the population live here. The stagnation of regional disparities and slow catch-up of less developed regions indicate the poor efficiency of the EU cohesion policy. © 2023, The Author(s).}, keywords = {economic growth; Central and Eastern European countries; Catch-up; Theil index; Unconditional β-Convergence}, year = {2024}, eissn = {1874-4621}, pages = {393-415} } @misc{MTMT:35526409, title = {What are the main drivers of regional development in CEE?}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/35526409}, author = {Egri, Zoltán}, unique-id = {35526409}, year = {2023} } @misc{MTMT:35526396, title = {Útfüggőség, térfüggőség a magyar városhálózatban (1960–2020)}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/35526396}, author = {Egri, Zoltán}, unique-id = {35526396}, year = {2023} } @misc{MTMT:35526380, title = {Kelet-közép-európai klubkonvergencia az új évezredben}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/35526380}, author = {Egri, Zoltán}, unique-id = {35526380}, year = {2023} } @inbook{MTMT:34437798, title = {A térbeli jövedelemegyenlőtlenségek változása Magyarországon}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34437798}, author = {Tánczos, Tamás and Csugány, Julianna and Egri, Zoltán}, booktitle = {Válság, kilábalás, fenntarthatóság}, doi = {10.46403/Valsag.2023.101}, unique-id = {34437798}, year = {2023}, pages = {99-127} } @CONFERENCE{MTMT:34413507, title = {Térbeli spilloverek és fejlődési csapdák az Európai Unióban}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34413507}, author = {Egri, Zoltán}, booktitle = {VII.
