RT Journal Article T1 Regional wage convergence in Spain : 1850-1930 A1 Rosés, Joan R. A1 Sánchez-Alonso, Blanca AB This paper presents a new regional database on real wages for Spain from 1850 to 1930.This evidence is used to analyze the evolution of wages across regions and occupations. Substantial wage convergence occurred from 1850 to 1914, despite low rates of internal migration.World War I and the subsequent globalization backlash were associated with a spectacular increase in wage differentials. However, real wage convergence across Spanish provinces resumed during the 1920s, this time accompanied by high rates of internal migration PB Elsevier SN 0014-4983 YR 2004 FD 2004-05-06 LK https://hdl.handle.net/10016/11163 UL https://hdl.handle.net/10016/11163 LA eng DS e-Archivo RD 1 sept. 2024
