Abstract
Trade opening in Mexico implied an internal re-location of productive factors, altering the course of the regional convergence. ß-convergence theory is addressed to investigate if this process was different among states that are most and less exposed to globalization. The method of regression is a fixed effects panel data estimated through weighted least squares, nested tests, and models with dummies to interregional comparison. After to control by differences in the steady state, results suggest a process of regional convergence along 1940-2015 at annual speeds between 1.2% and 4.6% for the several samples. Advances on education and health stand out as important factors for regional growth. In the open economy stage, the speed of convergence has risen among states that are more exposed to globalization, while it has slowed down for those less exposed; therefore, globalization is related to the regional convergence process.
