• The world economy has undergone a major transformation in the last decade, characterized by an intensification of the interaction of several long-term trends at the same time. In recent years, the changes brought about by the Covid-19 pandemic and the effects of military conflicts have added to the trends of climate change and population ageing. The responsible authorities are reacting on this development by investing heavily and adapting economic strategies to improve resilience of economies and the balance of development. The project proposal is based on the need to update knowledge and major trends in real convergence, identifying endogenous and exogenous determinants that have fundamentally marked this process in the last decade, while focusing on those factors that affect GDP per capita convergence and minimize the negative effects of income polarization.
