"Economic Convergence" as a book category covers works that explore how and why economies, regions, or social groups grow more similar over time—whether in income levels, productivity, institutions, market structures, or living standards. Books in this category range from theoretical and empirical studies of catch-up growth, diffusion of technology, and convergence clubs, to comparative histories and case studies of developing countries, regions (e.g., the EU, East Asia), or sectors that close gaps with richer peers. It includes analyses of the roles of globalization, trade, migration, policy choices, human capital, and institutions, plus critiques that examine persistent divergence, inequality, and environment-related constraints on convergence. Aimed at scholars, policymakers, students, and informed general readers, the category blends economics, political economy, development studies, and history to explain the mechanisms, limits, and policy implications of economies becoming more alike.
