... The ratio of teachers to students in primary schools and high school/vocational schools has a negative and significant effect on HDI. Furthermore, research conducted by Abdullah Rusli (2013) showed that there are only two significant variables that cause inequality i.e. wages and share of economic output received by employers. Meanwhile, two other variables are not significant i.e. urbanization and dependency ratio. ...

... According to Adelman and Moris (as cited in Arsyad, 2010) income inequality in developing countries is influenced by high population growth, inflation, investment in capital-intensive projects, and deteriorating exchange rates. Furthermore, Abdulah (2013) states that the Wage variable and the share of economic output received by entrepreneurs affect the inequality of income distribution. Growth is a process of changing economic conditions in a country on an ongoing basis to get to a state considered better for a certain period. ...

Development aims to improve the welfare of the people. To improve welfare, it requires economic growth that is quitte high, stable and equiable in income. High enough economic growth must be balanced with equity, so as not to create ineqalty. Growth is not a goal, but only a tool as a process to reduce proverty and redurce inequality in income distribution. Hence the reduction of inequality ofincome distribution is the essence of development results can be enjoyed fairly and equitably by all people, the problemof unequal income distribution will not arise. If the economic proformance is betteror is experiencing progress, then all people must also feel the impact of this progress in the form of an increase in the level of income. Because the distribution of income is very useful in increasing economic growth and development,it is important for us to know whar factor affect in the inequality of income didtribution in Java. This variables used are econoc growth, provincial minium wages , open employment rate, ddegree of fiscal decentralization and growth in the human development index with multiple regression analysis for 2014-2019. The results showed that the only variables affecting income inequality were the provincial minimum wage and the open unemployment rate. The open unemployment rate variable has a coefficient value of -0.0502438. This means that when the exchange rate increases by Rp.1, income inequality will decrease by 0.0502438%. The open unemployment rate variable has a coefficient value of 0.0056812. This means that when the open unemployment rate increases by one percent, income inequality will increase by 0.0056812%. Meanwhile, economic growth, the degree of fiscal decentralization and the human development index have no effect on income inequality

Previous studies on the association between migration outflow and income inequality have shown mixed findings. Some find that migration outflow reduces income inequality, but others find that migration outflow increases income inequality. This study aims to analyze the effect of migration outflow on income inequality in Central Java Province with two control variables: mean years of schooling and minimum wage. Central Java was chosen as the research location because it is the province with the highest migration outflow. This study uses secondary, time series data for the period 2000-2018 consisting of income inequality as measured by the Gini ratio (percent), migration outflow (people), meanyears of schooling (years), and minimum wage (rupiah). Data were obtained from BPS Central Java and analyzed with multiple linear regression. The results show that migration outflow and mean years of schooling have a negative significant effect and minimum wage has a positive significant effect on income inequality. This findings imply that migration outflow and improvement of the quality of human resources through education can be solutions to reduce poverty and income inequality, while minimum wage actually increases inequality, which may be due to the large portion of population engaging in agriculture and the informal sector.
... Between-regional inequality is decomposed into subgroups including income, other diverse unit characteristics and heterogeneity which give rise to between-regional trends in inequality and inter-sectoral economics in an area (Kuncoro, 2011;Ramos & Coimbra, 2009). Some studies of inequality at different levels, ranging from international inequality (Ezcurra & Pascual, 2008;Habanik, Hostak, & Kutik, 2013;Postoiu & Bușega, 2015;Rodriguez-Pose & Ezcurra, 2010), inter-province outside of Indonesia (Antonescu, 2012;Bonet, 2006;Fitrawaty, Maipita, Hermawan, & Rahman, 2018;Islam & Noman, 2015;Wijerathna, Bandara, Smith, & Naranpanawa, 2014), inter-province in Indonesia (Aritenang, 2014;Fadli, 2014;Mahardiki & Santoso, 2013;Zakaria, 2013), inter-city outside of Java Island (Arham, 2014;Baransano, Putri, Achsani, & Kolopaking, 2016;Yuliani, 2015), Inter-city in Java Island (Abdulah, 2013;Kurniawan & Sugiyanto, 2013), regional (Cahyono, Subroto, & Anwar, 2017;Suseno, 2015) and inter-sub-district in a city (Nugroho, 2014). There is also research on pre-post-crisis inequality (Đoki, Fröhlich, & Bakaric, 2016), inequality after regional expansion (Dhyatmika & Atmanti, 2013) and differences in the conditions of inequality in origin district and newdistrict (Panjawa, Samudro, & Soesilo, 2018). ...

This study analyzes spatial inequality through a causal relationship between inequality and economic growth within-recidency, between-recidency and overall in Central Java.The analytical tool used is the Direct Error Correction Model causality. This study shows that spatial concentrations throughout the observation period are quite high. In the 2001-2008 period there was an increasing tendency for spatialconcentration, reflecting the decline in the distribution of the Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) share of districts and cities in Central Java. We also obtained similar findings in a number of regions both within and between-recidency. Post-2008, spatial concentration tends to decrease, indicating the distribution of the Gross Regional Domestic Product share. Other findings indicate a one-way relationship shown economic growth towards inequality. Another important contribution is that economic growth in inequality only occurs in the long term. Thus there has been convergence because of the increase ineconomic growth which is able to reduce inequality in all areas of Central Java, including within and between-recidency. This proves that during the implementation of regional autonomy there is a spread effect greater than the backwash effect in Central Java, including within and between-recidency.

This study aims to analyze the role of Micro Small Enterprises (MSEs) and Medium-Large Enterprises (MLEs) in addressing income inequality in all districts/cities in Aceh Province and also analyze the most dominant variables that reduce the community income gap. This study uses 2016 Economic Census of BPS province of Aceh for 23 districts/cities and Gini Ratio for community income gap variables. The results showed that the number of MSEs units, the average MSEsworkers, the total wages received by the SMEs workers, the SMEs wage average, and the district/city economic growth in 2016 had a significant effect on the income inequality in the districts/cities of Aceh Province. While the number of MSEs workers, the number of MLEs units, the number of MLEs workers, the average of MLEs workers, the total wages of MLEs workers, and the average wage of MLEsworkers have not significantly influence to the community income gap. The only factor that has a significant influence in reducing the gap in community income is the total remuneration (wages) received by MSEs workers. The recommendation that can be given to be implemented immediately for the Aceh government is to strengthen MSEs, including cooperatives as the drivers of the Aceh's economic which can absorb more labor and compensation or wages received by workers also increases. Furthermore, the Government of Aceh, in this case, the Provincial Manpower Office and the Office that manages labors all districts/cities must monitor the application of the Provincial Minimum Wage (PMW) for MSEs which have been under-emphasized for various reasons and consider.

p>East Nusa Tenggara Province is one of the provinces in Indonesia in the form of an archipelago and geographically borders directly with the State of Timor Leste. This province has a problem with a fairly high poverty rate, in fact it was recorded as the 3rd highest in Indonesia after the provinces of Papua and West Papua. Because it is an archipelagic province, the problems of disparity in regional development, income inequality and poverty cannot be avoided. The existence of this disparity symptom does not only lie in regional development, but this disparity occurs in the income and GDP-forming sectors. Therefore the main goal to be achieved in this research is to identify areas in NTT Province which are still classified as lagging behind, and how to find the economic base sector as a leading sector so that it can be used as a locomotive for regional development so that in turn it is able to reduce regional inequality, income distribution and poverty. The analytical tools used are Theil Entrophy Analysis, Klasen Typology, Location Quintient (LQ) Analysis and Dynamic Location Quintien (DLQ) Analysis. The data needed is secondary data in the form of published documents from the BPS Province of NTT from 2012-2018 for the purposes of analysis such as GRDP data, population and per capita income for each district in the province of NTT. The results of the analysis found that there were 3 regencies that were classified as developed and fast growing, 3 regencies which were categorized as developed but depressed areas,</p

Sitiarjo merupakan salah satu desa rawan bencana banjir di Kabupaten Malang. Sitiarjo memiliki profil wilayah yang rendah dibandingkan daerah sekitarnya, terdapat dua sungai, dan terdampak air pasang laut. Kondisi tersebut menjadi faktor mendasar terjadinya banjir bandang di Sitiarjo. Disamping faktor itu terdapat faktor lainnya yang menyebabkan bencana banjir tersebut. Berbagai faktor menjadi pendukung banjir bandang Sitiarjo, dimana periode kebencanaannya semakin memendek dari tahun ke tahun. Melihat hal tersebut, masyarakat Sitiarjo memiliki pengalaman yang dihasilkan dari proses adaptasi lingkungan. Pengalaman itu merupakan mitigasi bencana banjir bandang berbasis kearifan lokal. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengidentifikasi mitigasi banjir bandang berbasis kearifan lokal masyarakat Sitiarjo. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian kualitatif dengan pendekatan historis. Teknik pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan studi literatur, observasi, wawancara, dokumentasi, dan analisis trianggulasi. Pengambilan sampel menggunakan teknik purposive sampling. Teknik analisis yang digunakan yaitu analisis deskriptif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan mitigasi masyarakat Sitiarjo terdiri dari mitigasi non-struktural dan struktural. Mitigasi non-struktural meliputi dimensi pengetahuan, nilai, solidaritas kelompok, dan mekanisme pengambilan keputusan. Sedangkan mitigasi struktural masyarakat dapat dilihat berdasarkan dimensi mitigasi mekanik. Mitigasi bencana berbasis kearifan lokal masyarakat Sitiarjo berkontribusi dalam meminimalisir risiko bencana banjir bandang. Namun lambat laun kearifan lokal masyarakat mulai memudar. Melihat hal tersebut, perlu adanya penguatan nilai kearifan lokal masyarakat dari berbagai belah pihak. Diharapkan agar dapat menjadi upaya mitigasi bencana banjir bandang yang efektif oleh masyarakat lokal.
