Abstract: This paper examines the convergence hypotheses in the Solow model. It shows that an augmented Solow model can be used to estimate the speed of convergence between Jordan and Israel. The data indicates that Israel has a higher steady state than Jordan. Moreover, the estimated speed of convergence for Israel is between 2% and 4% per year and for Jordan is between 1% and 2% per year.
