Using data from the Indonesia Family Life Survey (IFLS) from 2014–2015, this study seeks to analyze the ethnic differences in the return to education in Indonesia. We discovered that IV models, as opposed to OLS estimation, are more suitable to evaluate returns to education in Indonesia. Additionally, rather than treating the ethnicity variable as...
The Philippines is an insular geography stretching nearly 2000 km from north to south, and has been beset with serious spatial poverty imbalances since its independence. This study comprehensively examined the provincial-level spatial poverty distribution for the years 2000–2018 by applying various spatial distribution analysis methods. Our convent...
Our exploratory spatial data analysis covered Indonesia's district‐level per capita incomes for 2004–2018 and found statistical evidence of a weak but monotonically increasing positive spatial association. The spatial income clusters/outliers were scattered nationwide and expanded geographically. Applying the filtering method, we found that regiona...
This chapter starts with the measurement of interpersonal income inequality as a prelude to regional income inequality and introduces two types of inequality decomposition methods that are often used to examine the determinants of income inequality. After presenting the Kuznets process of income inequality using the Theil indices, it discusses the...
This chapter introduces some analytical methods for regional income inequality. It first presents a bidimensional inequality decomposition method. Using the squared coefficient of variation (squared CV), income inequality can be decomposed not only by population subgroups but also by factor components. Using data on GDP by industrial sectors, the m...
Over the last two decades, the manufacturing industry has grown at an annual average rate of 4.5% in Indonesia. However, its share in total GDP has fallen gradually. This output deindustrialization appears to be premature in the sense that it started at a much lower development level than in most developed countries. But, if we look at manufacturin...
Efficiency is defined as the ratio of the actual to the optimal output. Accordingly, labor productivity (output-labor ratio) is expressed as a product of optimal labor productivity, also known as pure labor productivity, and efficiency. As a large insular and the world’s fourth most populous East Asian middle-income nation, Indonesia achieved a sub...
Over the last four decades, Indonesia has undergone substantial structural changes. While agriculture and mining lowered their GDP shares, the services sector raised its share. Meanwhile, the GDP share of manufacturing exhibited an inverted U-shaped pattern. In the 1980s and 1990s, it has increased gradually; but after reaching the peak in the earl...
During the 1990s, before the 1997 financial crisis, Indonesia achieved an annual average growth rate of more than 7% in real GDP, comparable to the rapid growth period of the 1970s. However, the crisis exerted an enormous impact on the Indonesian economy. It cast a shadow not only on the financial but also on the real sector of the economy; in 1998...
The primary source of national/provincial output growth between input growth/factor accumulation growth (“perspiration growth”) and total factor productivity (TFP) growth (“inspiration growth”) has been long debated in Indonesia. Differing from the existing decomposition studies using the growth accounting analysis and stochastic frontier analysis,...
This study employs the Malmquist productivity index based on data envelopment analysis to measure and decompose total factor productivity (TFP) change into efficiency and technological change by province. Using annual observations of gross regional domestic product and factor inputs (labor, physical, and human capital) for 26 contiguous provinces,...
This paper studies the evolution of regional disparities in labor productivity, capital accumulation, and efficiency across Indonesian provinces over the 1990–2010 period. Through the lens of a nonlinear dynamic factor model, we first test the hypothesis that all provinces would eventually converge to a common steady‐state path. We reject this hypo...
en Introducing an employment variable with five levels of educational attainment per capita and employing inequality decomposition, this study addresses three questions. How does labour force vary by education and provinces? How does labour force utilization vary by education and provinces? What are the potential causes of differences? We find that...
In original publication of the article, the author’s first name and family name has been swapped incorrectly. The correct name should read as Mitsuhiko Kataoka.
We use data envelopment analysis to measure the relative efficiency among Indonesia’s provinces in using input to produce output over a 20-year period that includes the global economic crisis. We then employ the inequality decomposition technique of a Theil’s second measure to explore the extent to which the efficiency factor contributes to interpr...
Based on the 2008–2010 Susenas panel data, this study examines expenditure inequality from spatial perspectives in Indonesia, using three decomposition methods: (i) a conventional Theil index decomposition; (ii) an alternative Theil index decomposition proposed by Elbers et al. (2008); and (iii) the Blinder−Oaxaca decomposition. Our results show th...
We use the perpetual inventory method to estimate gross fixed capital stock at the provincial level in Indonesia. We employ a relatively long series of past annual investments at constant prices for 1983–2007 and a province-specific survival function for capital. For this purpose, we use published data on provincial income accounts, input–output ta...
With reference to the assumptions presented by Yamano and Ohkawara (J Reg Sci 40:205–229, 2000) on the specification of a production function with region-specific individual effects on public capital, this paper introduces a new benchmark index in order to analyze the Japanese government’s investment allocation policy across subnational regions, wi...
Public investment is a fundamental response of government to the existing imbalances between subnational regions. Especially, the question concerning the allocation policy of public investment more receives a great deal of public attentions along with the decentralization process, because economic growth is inevitably uneven in its subnational impa...
Based on 2008-2010 Susenas panel data, this study analyzes expenditure inequality in Indonesia from spatial perspectives by using several inequality decomposition methods: decomposition of the Theil indices by population subgroups; decomposition of the Gini coefficient by expenditure components; and the Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition. In the Theil de...
Under market-oriented factor mobility, capital and labor relocate to regions offering higher returns. In consequence, the more factor inputs go to subnational regions with higher productivities, the greater the increase in national output. Interregional factor mobility reflects the output growth of a region and, in turn, a nation. However, in Indon...
This study proposes a squared employment-weighted coefficient of variation through a shift-share decomposition analysis, addressing
the disadvantage of Esteban’s (Reg. Sci. Urban Econ. 30:353–364, 2000) variance measure. The aim is to analyze the role of each shift-share component in explaining interregional inequality in
productivity per worker. A...
Using the Theil population-weighted method for per capita GDP and the variance in a shift-share analysis on labor productivity, we conduct a comprehensive interregional income inequality decomposition analysis on Indonesia before and after the 1998 economic crisis. Interregional income inequality is largely determined by the interregional inequalit...
This study empirically identifies some factors of interregional income inequality in postwar Japan during the period 1955–2005 using a decomposition analysis with a Theil L index and a gap accounting analysis. One major empirical finding was that interregional inequality in per capita GDP during the period 1955–2005 showed a double peaked M-shaped...
This paper examines the effect of public investment on the regional economies of postwar Japan. It evaluates the effects of efficiency-verses-equity-oriented allocation policies by estimating the aggregate regional production function and calculating the marginal productivity of public capital for each region, using panel data covering the 47 prefe...
In this paper we examine the impact of membership in Preferential Trade Agreements (PTAs) on trade between PTA members. Rather than considering the impact of PTA membership on the volume of trade we consider the impact of membership on the structure of trade. For a large sample of countries over the period 1962-2000 we find that membership in a PTA...
The main objective of this paper is to examine the effects of the changes in economic conditions and government policies on the output growth of the Kyushu region between 1965 and 1990. This study uses the extended growth-factor decomposition method based on a three-region Japanese interregional input-output system consisting of Kyushu, Kanto, and...
The effects of public capital allocation on regional economies in postwar Japan has often been the subject of theoretical discussions and empirical research due to the fact that Japan has been able to decrease large regional income differentials while achieving remarkable economic growth. One of the pioneering works in this field Mera(1973) estimat...
