Abstract
Key issues in the empirical study on growth are addressed using provincial data in the Philippines. We find a high rate of absolute convergence, a positive relationship between inequality and growth, and a positive relationship between political competitiveness and growth.
Keywords: economic growth, convergence, inequality and growth, politics and growth, Philippines
