This study analyzes the relations between fiscal decentralization, economic growth, and regional development inequality in Eastern Indonesia using 2016-2019 panel data of thirteen Eastern Indonesia provinces obtained from Statistics Indonesia and the Directorate General for Fiscal Balance. Using simultaneous equations estimated through the Three-Stage Least Squares, this study finds that fiscal decentralization has not fully supported economic growth and correct the inequality in eastern Indonesia's regional development. The mandate for managing the budget has not been optimally used by the local governments, indicated by poor allocation for productive expenditures and its decreasing proportion during the research period. It is caused by poor human resource quality in budget planning and management, which finally hinders the quality of public service and economic growth. Supports from physical and human capital are required to keep up with the occurring economic activities so that inequality in regional development in the area can be reduced.

Increasing population in Indonesia spur increased demand for rice. On the other hand, national rice production as a rice-producing commodity is not optimal due to limited capital owned by farmers and the number of damaged irrigation infrastructures. This has an impact on the farmers' incomes that are less than optimal and the high poverty rate in rural areas requires public policy in the form of government expenditures, one of which is rolled out through the national program of Special Efforts (UPSUS) for Increasing Rice Production. This study aims to determine the effect of UPSUS funds directly or indirectly to rural poverty in the western and eastern regions of Indonesia. Using path analysis, the findings of the study indicate that the direct impact of the program on poverty is apparent in the eastern region with a positive coefficient. Meanwhile, the indirect effect of program funds on rural poverty through rice production and GDP of the food crops sub-sector shows positive values both in the west and east. As well as the indirect effect of program funds on poverty through rice production occurs only in the eastern region by showing negative coefficients.

Community-based tourism is a form of participatory tourism management, aimed at reviewing the application of the principles of Community Based Tourism (CBT) supply chain in tourism development on Teluk Kiluan Beach and knowing its implications for the welfare of the surrounding community. This study uses a qualitative approach at Teluk Kiluan Tanggamus Beach research site in Lampung Province, and conducts primary data collection with interviews, in-depth interviews, and observations from key informants and other supporting informants then as a validity test. The results of the study show that CBT in developing coastal tourism on Teluk Kiluan applies economic principles and non-economic principles (social, cultural, political and institutional). The economic dimension of the implications of CBT supply chain on the welfare of the communities around the Gulf coast is characterized by: absorption of local labor, development of business units, doubling of people's income, and growing and developing new investors. Improving education, quality of life, changes in social values, freedom of action, environmental sustainability and the involvement of institutional strengths are the implications of implementing CBT on non-economic welfare of the community.

The phenomenon of slum settlements has been increasingly occurring in Indonesia. Slums are characterized by excessive population density which neglects its habitability. This program becomes one of the main agenda of Joko Widodo, the President of Indonesia, having a vision to alleviate slums, one of which is to implement the development program commonly known as National Slum Upgrading Program / KOTAKU. The program aims to create slum areas of 0% and is conducted in more than 100 districts in Indonesia. However, in its implementation, Sidoarjo regency becomes the public spotlight due to its development and achievement in economic growth improvement. This program is conducted in Sidoarjo supported by simultaneous the Regency Regulation enactment. Upon achieving success, Sidoarjo becomes a role model for other regions. Unfortunately, behind the success of development, there are two contradictory conditions, two slum villages having different development results since the development program was implemented in 2015. Bligo village becomes a successful village in establishing the development. Meanwhile, Jiken Village fails in achieving the expected development. Although the two villages share characteristics of being in adjacent location, conducting the same development program, and obtaining the same regional regulatory support, it is however not sufficient to support the success of development. This research is conducted by applying qualitative descriptive approach in order to obtain the result on the importance of participation in development process. The researchers apply the Eight Rungs of Citizen Participation, which can determine that Bligo village enters the stage of citizen control in which the community plays a full role in program implementation. Contrastingly, Jiken village only enters the stage of Informing, where the public only get information from the government related to development programs without any community empowerment. The participation of the community is crucial to the success of the ...

Poverty is a very complex problem. So many ways that has been done by the Government but not yet provide optimal results. Any measures taken to overcome poverty often only temporary. There needs to be alternative measures to alleviate poverty through the empowerment one. Self-empowerment for the poor in improving the standard of living and welfare research studies conducted in the District of Alang-Alang Palembang. This study is a qualitative study using interaksionime symbolic approach. In interaksionime symbolic of human behavior and interaction shown by the symbol and meaning, and should be able to translate the meaning and significance of the symbol. This research suggests a model of self-empowerment of the poor through social capital and internal self. In the self-empowerment, poor individuals may act as subjects rather than just the object of poverty reduction. Self-empowerment model in addition supported by a good social capital is also supported by internal self. Internal to include prayer, effort, initiative and tawakal. Self-empowerment is done individually capable of affecting every movement of the poor themselves are to change for improving the living standards and the shackles of poverty, but it can provide motivation to work harder and improve the ethical attitudes and work for productivity increases and is thus able to increase revenue. Empowerment supported by internal social capital and good self will bring individual creativity in doing self-empowerment. This condition can increase income and improve the lives of poor and better than ever before so that poor people more prosperous and achieve the expected welfare.

In Islam, money is viewed as a means to measure value and a tool for transactions. This study explains other dimensions of money while also examining its use in the interconnected social and religious phases of human life. Since money is perceived differently across cultures, we conducted a literature review to identify dimensions other than the one considered by Western culture. For this purpose, we used scientific articles, book chapters, and books as the primary sources, which allowed us to obtain a complete and coherent description of the phenomenon under study. According to the results, money not only has a transactional dimension that seeks to maximize profit (as it is mainly conceived by Western culture) but also a social and religious dimension. Giving money can be more satisfying than giving in-kind. In Islam, the money collected is freely spent based on individual needs. In addition, money (dinar and dirham) serves to measure pious deeds when employed as a unit of account in zakat and qurban, as well as in inheritances. In Islam, a proper management of monetary assets can help to link the social and religious dimensions in a coherent manner.

The objectives of this research are: (1) to analyze the market structure of subsidizedfertilizer in East Java, (2) to analyze the need of subsidized fertilizer which should beallocated to their farms, (3) to observe the deviation, if any, of subsidized fertilizerdistribution along the distribution channel.This research found that the market struc-ture has the following characteristics: the access of market information is generallyquite even among distributors at the same level but not between different level. Fromthe market conduct point of view, it is found that there are rent seeking behaviorsresulting in some deviation in distribution channel as mentioned above. It is the resultof market structure being characterized by oligopolistic in nature. Such market struc-ture and conducts result in the level of fertilizer prices far above the highest retailprice set by the government, but farmers are forced to buy because they are in emer-gency need.Keywords : Fertilizer, rent-seeking, oligopoly, scarcity

There are some factors which are deemed to have an effect in empowering the small and mediumindustries (SMIs). This study determines the roles of government, traditional institutions, and socialcapital for the empowerment of SMIs. Purposive Sampling method was used to determine the district/city in the sample. Sample units in each selected district/city were used Stratified RandomSampling method as many as 204 people. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM)-based variance isused as analysis technique aided by program Partial Least Square (PLS). The results showed that:1) the role of government through the relevant agencies has not been able to directly influence theempowerment of SMIs. 2) The role of traditional institutions through social roles, cultural, economicand financial has a positive effect for the empowerment of SMIs. 3) Social capital has a positiveeffect on the role of government to empower SMIs. 4) Social capital has a positive effect on therole of traditional institutions for the empowerment of SMIs. 5) Social capital is not directly affectingthe empowerment of SMIs. 6) The role of government through the relevant agencies has a positiveinfluence on the role of traditional institutions for the empowerment of SMIs.

Economic integration, as a prevalent phenomenon in contemporary international relations, brings with it several problems including in the practice of development. Krapohl & Fink (2013) argue that regional integration can follow three different developmental paths which are intra-regional interdependence, extra-regional dependence and intra-regional asymmetries and hence regional integration can actually reinforce current situations rather than changing it. With regards to this, ASEAN is following the second path, creating a reliance on external actors and thus requiring member states to be highly competitive in the global level. However, this strategy ignores an important element, the intra-national development gap, since ASEAN is mostly focused in overcoming the intra-regional gap. This paper therefore seeks to elaborate the problem of increasing intra-national development gap due to regional integration by using Indonesia as a case study. The findings show that regional integration in Indonesia can actually widen the national development gap due to three main reasons. First, ASEAN integration is highly top-down in nature, thus limiting the role of Indonesia's sub-national governments (SNGs) and private actors in the process; second, differing capacity of Indonesia's sub-national governments to engage in IR provides higher opportunities for some while creating hindrances for others and lastly, the high transactional cost of intra-national economic activities in Indonesia causes the benefits of economic integration to be highly concentrated in one area. Therefore, there needs to be a larger role for SNGs in regional integration particularly in the most underpriviliged area of Indonesia.
