In order to analyze the privatization policies undertaken by the national and regional governments, we consider a horizontal differentiation model with price competition in which a country consists of two regions of different sizes. We show that public-sector intervention by either the national or regional government is essential for achieving the social optimum, because a private duopoly does not achieve the social optimum. However, not all public interventions in firms are better than the private duopoly. On the other hand, the preferences of consumers and firms about privatization policy are completely opposite. Finally, the privatization policies of regional governments are completely opposite from one region to the other, and do not coincide with that of the national government. Overall, this paper shows that the relative size of regions is an important feature in the design of the privatization policies implemented by national and regional governments.

Hence each region boundaries and the rights distribution are regulated and stipulated through the local government laws. Nowadays, the regulatory has been being a multiple implications include the authority, borders and rights problems, challenges and also the obstacles. This phenomenon occurs because the continental paradigmatic model has been being chosen for regional development than its application to the regional regions which should be more ocean government or archipelagic government comprehensively. This research used a literature study method which has collected then analyzed systematically based on documentation and the various official reports which have significantly relevance to the research problem. The results of the study explain that both of the described regions (which has an archipelagic characteristic) shown the restructuring format and regional government laws reformulation. This suitable for catching up to the regional development achievement or performance. The arrangements means for reformulating the new different policy and also the government technical procedures either (Republic of Indonesia's Law Number 23 year of 2014 which concerning to the regional governance).

AbstractThe impact of trust on economic performance has been widely explored, but the reasons for its variability across countries are not well understood. We analyse the effect of the quality of government at the regional level on individual generalized trust in a multi-country context across regions in Europe. Social phenomena are often subnational and a number of public services are provided at a subnational level; the trust of individuals living in the same country may, therefore, differ by region depending also on the quality of the local government. As a proxy of the quality of institutions, we use the European Quality of Government Index, calculated at the regional level over 27 European Union (EU) countries. The analysis conducted on data extracted from the European Social Survey 2012 refers to 142 regions from 15 EU member states. Considering the clustered nature of the data, a multilevel approach is used. The findings show that living in a region with high-quality local government positively influences individual trust. This positive association survives the inclusion of several contextual regional variables.
