      abstract = {Testing for economic convergence across countries has been  a central issue in the literature of economic growth and  development. This book introduces a modern framework to  study the cross-country convergence dynamics in labor  productivity and its proximate sources: capital  accumulation and aggregate efficiency. In particular,  recent convergence dynamics of developed as well as  developing countries are evaluated through the lens of a  non-linear dynamic factor model and a clustering algorithm  for panel data. This framework allows us to examine key  economic phenomena such as technological heterogeneity and  multiple equilibria. In this context, the book provides a  succinct review of the recent club convergence literature,  a comparative view of developed and developing countries,  and a tutorial on how to implement the club convergence  framework in the statistical software Stata.},
