"Pertumbuhan ekonomi suatu negara tidak dapat dilepaskan dari peningkatan kualitas pendidikannya. Pendidikan mempunyai kontribusi besar dalam peningkatan mutu modal manusia, dimana manusia adalah penggerak faktor produksi lainnya. Perkembangan ilmu pengetahuan dan teknologi adalah indikator kemajuan pendidikan suatu bangsa, semakin tinggi ilmu pengetahuan dan teknologi yang dikuasai oleh suatu bangsa, semakin majulah pembangunan bangsa tersebut.Pendidikan mempunyai kontribusi dalam berbagai sektor, termasuk dalam pengembangan sektor pertanian. Modernisasi pertanian tidak dapat dilepaskan dari peningkatan teknologi dan pengembangan ilmu pengetahuan yang diaplikasikan pada sektor ini. Dampaknya adalah produksi pertanian yang makin meningkat dan efisien, serta tersedianya suplai pangan yang cukup untuk masyarakat. Bahkan pendidikan mengubah deklinasi yang seharusnya terjadi disektor pertanian-yang diakibatkan menurunnya demand terhadap produksi pertanianssenjadi stabil, bahkan meningkat untuk beberapa negara maju. Seperti di Amerika Serikat, sektor pertanian tetap ditumbuhkembangkan sehingga tetap terjamin swasembada pangan dan bahkan menghasilkan pendapatan negara karena oversupply sektor ini. Sektor pertanian Amerika Serikat didukung oleh pengembangan teknologi yang dilakukan melalui penelitian-penelitian yang dilakukan dengan tujuan meningkatkan produktivitas dan efisiensi sektor ini. Pendidikan menjadi hal utama untuk mengakses teknologi tersebut. "

"AbstractDestructive behavior to coral reef ecosystem should not exist if community realize the importance value of the existence of coral reefs, have adequate source for livelihood and an obedience to God Almighty. The purpose of this study is to analyze the influence of religious ritual performing (religiousness), social and economic conditions of society on destructive manner of community to coral reefs. The data collected are analyzed quantitatively using structural equation model (SEM) using the method of Partial Least Square (PLS). The result findings show that the destructive behavior of the community to coral reef is not influenced by the piety of the people in performing ritual worship. The more devout people in performing ritual worship behavior does not necessarily make them more friendly to the environment, particularly coral reef ecosystems. The destructive behavior of the community to coral reef is also not influenced by their social conditions. The higher level of community's education does not necessarily make them more concerned about the environment. The destructive behavior of community to coral reef is significantly influenced by the economic conditions of society. Communities with lower income levels tend to perform acts that damage the coral reefs such as coral mining and destructive fishing techniques in an effort to satisfy their economic needs."

"This study is aimed to investigate the contribution and controversies of Nobel Prize Winner in Economics in 2008, Paul R. Krugman, in economics field and in the society as a whole. Literature survey method is applied in this study. It is found that the Krugman?s contribution in the intemational trade is substantial for the development of international trade theory. He is also contributing to development of economic geography. In addition, his contribution to the international finance is also very important eventhough it is not recognized by the Nobel Committee. Out of the economic fields as his main contribution is his capability in bringing the economics into public discussion in both popular writings and public discussion or seminar is also admirable. Another side of Krugman is that his strong opinion sometimes creates controversies in both good and bad ways."

"Tujuan desentralisasi fiskal di Indonesia adalah untuk mengurangi kesenjangan pembangunan. Terkait dengan pembangunan pendidikan, salah satu masalah krusial adalah kesenjangan akses. Menggunakan data dari 440 database kabupaten kota selama 2005-2009, studi ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis dampak desentralisasi fiskal dalam mengurangi disparitas akses pendidikan dasar. Dengan menggunakan fixed-effect model, hasilnya menunjukkan bahwa Dana Alokasi Khusus (DAK) Pendidikan, DAK Non-Pendidikan, dan Pendapatan Asli Daerah (PAD) memiliki dampak yang signikan dalam mengurangi disparitas akses pendidikan bersama dengan karakteristik kekayaan dan regional. Berbagai upaya tetap perlu dilakukan untuk mengoptimalkan pemerataan akses pendidikan termasuk penguatan peran pemerintah provinsi dalam alokasi dan distribusi sumber daya pelayanan pendidikan dasar.

The objective of fiscal decentralization objective in Indonesia is to reduce development disparities. Regarding education development, one crucial issue is access disparity. Using 440 sub provincial database during 2005-2009, this study is aim to analyze the impact of fiscal decentralization in reducing disparity of primary education access. Using fixed-effect model, the result showed that Dana Alokasi Khusus (DAK) for Education, DAK Non Education, and Pendapatan Asli Daerah (PAD) have significant impact in reducing education access disparity along with the wealth and regional characteristics. Nonetheless efforts need to be done to optimize the equalization of education access including strengthening the provincial government role in resources allocation and distribution of basic education services."

"The economic growth of the country is inseparable from the development of its financial sector. Therefore, this research attempted to prove the existence of causality between financial sector and economic growth in Indonesia using data between Q1 of 1996 to Q4 of 2006. The variables used as proxy for financial sector are monetization, private credit, total deposits, stock market capitalism, and stock market value traded?while the real GDP is used as a proxy for economic growth. This research aims to determine which variable is the most dominant influence in the shock given in causality result.This research methodology used Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) and Granger causality. VECM is used to find out the dominant variable that gave shock, while Granger causality is used to detect the causality between variables. Granger causality test shows the existence of one way causality between real GDP and private credit, total deposit, and stock market value traded. These causalities come from three sources. First, from real GDP to private credit; second, from real GDP to stock market value traded; and the last, from total deposit to real GDP. Meanwhile, VECM test shows the result that the economic growth can be a boosting factor for Indonesian financial sector growth. Moreover, the dominant variable in creating shock on economic growth is stock market value traded.The Granger causality estimation shows that there are one-way causalities between real GDP and private credit, total deposit, and stock market value traded."

"AbstractIndonesia has been still experiencing regional economic disparity problems, including in labour productivity. This study employs dynamic panel approach to analyze convergence and to identify determinants of regional labour productivity during the period of 1987-2011. The System Generalized Method of Moments (Sys-GMM) estimation results show that regional convergence process occurs with speed of convergence of 0.06518 per year. Physical capital stock, human capital stock, total trade, and real wage give positive impacts. Therefore, government should prioritize in overcoming labour productivity disparity in Eastern Indonesia in which are more unequal than in Western Indonesia where interventions should be greater for provinces with lower labour productivity.AbstrakIndonesia masih mengalami masalah terkait dengan disparitas perekonomian regional, termasuk dalam hal produktivitas tenaga kerja. Studi ini menggunakan pendekatan panel dinamis untuk menganalisis konvergensi dan mengidentikasi determinan produktivitas tenaga kerja regional selama periode 1987-2011. Model estimasi System Generalized Method of Moments (Sys-GMM) menunjukkan bahwa proses konvergensi regional terjadi dengan kecepatan konvergensi 0,06518 per tahun. Stok modal fisik, stok modal manusia, total perdagangan, dan upah riil ditemukan memberikan pengaruh positif. Pemerintah harus lebih memprioritaskan untuk mengatasi masalah disparitas produktivitas tenaga kerja di Kawasan Timur Indonesia (KTI) yang lebih timpang dibandingkan Kawasan Barat Indonesia (KBI) di mana intervensi harus lebih fokus terhadap provinsi-provinsi dengan tingkat produktivitas tenaga kerja yang lebih rendah."

"AbstractThis study aims to determine the relationship between local government spending, agricultural productivity, and poverty in Indonesia for the period of 2005-2008. Using econometric models of the panel and panelsimultaneous, this study find the evidence that local government spending on infrastructure and education significantly affect agricultural productivity and poverty. The study also found that the value of multiplier effect of local government spending on poverty, roads is the largest, followed by education (the literacy rate) and irrigation."

"AbstractImproving the quality of human resources through education is believed as one of the solutions to reduce poverty. World attention to education in global ?Education For All program? and the ?Millennium Development Goals?, suggests that basic education become central program in reducing poverty. If there was a linear relationship between education and income, improved education at basic level would not increase revenues substantially. This study aim is analyzing the role of labor education level toward poverty. Using panel data, this study found that basic education level of labor has a significant role to increase poverty, whereas higher education levels of labor significantly reduce poverty in Indonesia. AbstrakMeningkatkan kualitas sumber daya manusia melalui pendidikan diyakini sebagai salah satu solusi untuk mengurangi kemiskinan. Kepedulian dunia internasional terhadap pendidikan dalam gerakan global ?Pendidikan Untuk Semua? dan ?Tujuan Pembangunan Milenium?, menegaskan bahwa pendidikan dasar menjadi pusat untuk mengurangi kemiskinan. Ketika terdapat hubungan linier antara pendidikan dan pendapatan, maka meningkatkan pendidikan hanya pada tingkat pendidikan dasar tidak akan meningkatkan pendapatan secara substansial. Studi ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis peran jenjang pendidikan tenaga kerja terhadap kemiskinan. Menggunakan data panel, studi ini menunjukkan bahwa secara signifikan jenjang pendidikan dasar tenaga kerja berperan meningkatkan kemiskinan, sedangkan tenaga kerja dengan jenjang pendidikan lebih tinggi signifikan mengurangi kemiskinan di Indonesia."

"AbstractThis study aims to test whether the behavior of Indonesian people in determining education is the manifestation of human capital theory or signaling theory. Using the ordinary least square (OLS) model and the Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS) 2007 data, we nd that both theories mutually have eect to in uence the behavior of Indonesian people to determine their education.AbstrakStudi ini bertujuan untuk menguji apakah perilaku masyarakat Indonesia dalam memandang pendidikan merupakan perwujudan dari teori human capital ataukah teori signaling. Dengan menggunakan model Ordinary Least Square (OLS) dan data Indonesia Family Life Survey (IFLS) tahun 2007, penulis menemukan bahwa kedua teori tersebut mempunyai pengaruh yang sama dalam memengaruhi perilaku masyarakat Indonesia dalam menempuh pendidikan."

"Robust measurement of interest rates speed of adjustment to monetary policy changes is very important to obtain acomprehensive understanding on the monetary transmission process and the eectiveness of monetary policy. The speed of adjustment are determined by number of frictions that interfere with the transmission of monetary policy.We measure Indonesia interest rate pass-through which have distinct characteristics in terms of banking competition, segmented banking market and concentrated structure. Interest rate pass-through is measured by using Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) and Mean Adjusted Lags (MAL). This paper shows the interest rate adjustment did take a relatively long time.

Pengukuran kecepatan penyesuaian suku bunga perbankan terhadap perubahan kebijakan moneter sangat penting sehingga diperoleh pemahaman komprehensif atas proses transmisi moneter dan efektivitas kebijakan. Kecepatan perubahan suku bunga deposito dan kredit perbankan ditentukan oleh adanya friksi-friksi transmisi kebijakan moneter ke sektor perbankan dan sektor riil. Penelitian ini mengukur interest rate pass-through perbankan Indonesia yang memiliki karakteristik khas dalam hal tingkat kompetisi perbankan, segmentasi pasar, dan struktur industri perbankan yang tinggi. Interest rate pass-through diukur dengan menggunakan Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) dan Mean Adjusted Lags (MAL). Hasil uji menunjukkan penyesuaian suku bunga membutuhkan waktu yang lama."
