Summary/Abstract: In analyzing the mobility of the intra-industry specialization processes in Romania in the period of time 2000-2010 on regional level, we started from the assessment of the of the structural convergence of the specialization from the point of view of the econometric connections between the regional indexes Grubel and Lloyd and their dynamic. In order to emphasize the stability in time of the comparative advantages of the intra-industry specialization, we built regression equations in which we used the Lafay indices of specialization from 2000 and 2010, and in order create an integrated image on the mobility in the structure of the distribution of comparative advantages on regional level we used the probabilistic analysis using the Markov chains.
