description At territorial scale economic growth has been uneven. Current trends point to a growing gap in the interregional income (or interdepartmental, in a strict sense), whose overcoming cannot be left to the automation market. In Latin America the persistence of interregional disparities is in the research agenda of ILPES and ECLAC since the past decade, because it affects the possibilities of regional development. In Colombia, concern about regional inequalities in the regional analysis, dates back to the nineties, and was focused on the identification of converging or diverging trends, whose results were inconclusive. The analysis of the economic performance of the Colombian departments and Bogota, during the period 2000 2012, using the technique of the quadrants, proposed by ILPESECLAC, has revealed that the winners territories (quadrant 1) have decreased, while the largest number has concentrated, in constant movement, in quadrants 2 and 3, that is, in the converging and stagnant areas while declining territories do not show substantial change. Interregional disparities do not appear to be attenuated, on the contrary, are accentuated. The interregional gap persists and structural change of departmental economies has deepened  it.

Current trends point to a growing gap in the interregional income (or interdepartmental, in a strict sense), whose overcoming cannot be left to the automation market.

Interregional disparities do not appear to be attenuated, on the contrary, are accentuated. The interregional gap persists and structural change of departmental economies has deepened  it. El crecimiento económico a escala territorial ha sido desigual. Las  tendencias actuales apuntan a un aumento de la brecha en el ingreso interregional (o interdepartamental, en un sentido estricto), cuya superación no se puede dejar al automatismo del mercado. En América Latina la persistencia de las disparidades interregionales se encuentra en la agenda de investigación del ILPES y la CEPAL, desde la década pasada, toda vez que afecta las posibi lidades de desarrol lo regional. En Colombia, la preocupación por las desigualdades territoriales dentro del análisis regional, se remonta a la década del noventa, y estuvo centrada en la identificación de tendencias convergentes o divergentes, cuyos resultados no fueron concluyentes. El análisis del desempeño económico de los departamentos colombianos más Bogotá, durante el periodo 2000-2012, mediante la técnica de los cuadrantes, propuestos por ILPES-CEPAL, ha revelado que los  territorios ganadores (cuadrante 1) han disminuido, mientras que el mayor número se concentra, en permanente movilidad, en los cuadrantes 2 y 3, es decir, en los territorios convergentes y estancados, mientras que los declinantes no muestran cambios sustanciales. Las disparidades interregionales no parecen atenuarse, por el contrario, se acentúan. La brecha interregional persiste y el cambio estructural de las economías departamentales, la ha profundizado.
