Résumé 0

This paper provides an empirical investigation of the cohesion versus growth tradeoff on European regions at a fine geographical disaggregation level. We use data on gdp per capita at the nuts3 level for 1980-2000 to estimate the influence of income dispersion within nuts1 on their economic growth. There is strong evidence that greater spatial disparities foster growth, at least for Northern regions. Classification JEL: R11.
