Abstract
Accompanying rapid economic growth in China, there have been provincial disparities. This article presents and analyzes the evolution of China's provincial GDP per capita disparity between 1952 and 1998. First, an examination of some basic indicators of disparity is carried out, and a test for unconditional convergence is performed to explore the dispersion features. Then, a more comprehensive regression analysis, allowing insights into the evidence of conditional convergence and highlighting the main determinants of growth in two main periods of the recent history of China (i.e. prereform and postreform) is presented. Finally, a discussion and conclusion are provided.
