Abstract

Abstract:One of the objectives of Indonesia’s 2001 decentralization reform was to enable the country’s subnational regions (provinces, cities and regencies) to realize their unique potential and, thus, implicitly, maximize their competitive advantage. While we have seen some improvements in socio-economic development and democratic accountability, stark variations in economic outcomes across regions remain. Why are some more successful than others in achieving competitiveness? Focusing primarily on district-level data from 1998 to 2016, this paper systematically examines the factors that may influence variations in subnational competitiveness in Indonesia. We found significant correlations between competitiveness and fiscal decentralization measures and, separately, between competitiveness at the province level and elements of democracy.

分权印尼地方竞争力的影响因素?

摘要：印度尼西亚2001年权力下放改革的目标之一是使该国的国家以下区域（省、市和县）能够发挥其独特的潜力，从而最大限度地提高其竞争优势。尽管我们看到社会经济发展和民主问责制有所改善，但各地区的经济成果仍存在明显差异。为什么有些公司在获得竞争力方面比其他公司更成功？本文主要关注1998年至2016年的地区一级数据，系统地研究了可能影响印度尼西亚国家以下竞争力变化的因素。我们发现竞争力与财政分权措施之间存在显著相关性，省级竞争力与民主要素之间也存在显著相关性。

JSEAE features articles based on original research, research notes, policy notes, review articles and book reviews, and welcomes submissions of conceptual, theoretical and empirical articles preferably with substantive policy discussions. Original research articles and research notes can be country studies or cross-country comparative studies.

Submitted manuscripts undergo a rigorous peer-review process – two reviewers for original research articles and one reviewer for research notes and policy notes. The journal is published three times a year: April, August and December.
