Indonesia is a developing country which is one of the countries that are members of the group of world countries, including the World Trade Organization (WTO), the Asian Pacific Economic Corporation (APEC), Southeast Asia Association of South East Of Asian Nation (ASEAN) and others. Even though until now the Indonesian state in its level of economic development is not very well established. Even among ASEAN countries, Indonesia is still lagging behind other ASEAN countries. This will hamper Indonesia's growth in the medium and long term if the quality of the economy is not immediately improved.

So that, it can be explained that the inequality level of regional economic development in the Tanah Bumbu Regency area with an average of 0.171 occurred due to the economy which relies on natural resources (mining and excavation), the mobility of goods and services is not smooth (distribution of goods and migration). However, the level of inequality in income distribution is low with an average of 0.312. It is because the depreciation of people's work is not much different, so that the income distribution is more evenly distributed. The inequality of economic development in Banjarmasin city is low with an average of 0.021. It occurs because the Banjarmasin city is the center of economy activities in the Province of South Kalimantan (the provincial capital). Banjarmasin city has the better infrastructure availability than other regions. In contrary, the inequality level of income distribution is in high level with an average of 0.354. It occurs because of the differences in types of work and skills of people in Banjarmasin. In addition, it also occurs becauce Banjarmasin City has a small area so that there is an inequality in income distribution.   Keywords: Williamson Index, and Gini Ratio Index.

Education always remains at the heart of political and economic debates in Morocco. The essential questions that arise for Morocco are: How to generalize and standardize the education system throughout its territory? How to improve the quality and efficiency of education in Morocco? The level of economic development remains fragile and sensitive, marked by an inequitable development between the 12 Moroccan regions. For this purpose, also treated what supposedly unequal is unfair. We must abandon the principle of equal treatment of pupils across the country. It is obviously a question of compensating for the initial inequalities. Putting this policy in the name of equity seems socially just. Educational justice means not only the same educational policies but having equal access and results. An egalitarian system must focus on improving the quality of the schools that serve the poorest regions of the country and the poorest classes in society. The reason is simple: a well-educated and well-groomed population will be more productive, which is a source of continuous growth that can benefit everyone. For this reason, the starting point is to establish a single school, carrying the ideals of freedom, equality, solidarity, the principles of citizenship, secularism, respect for others, universalism and unit. In addition, it is necessary to introduce digital into the education system and to diversify and encourage the learning of languages ​​(in addition to two official languages) such as English, Japanese, Chinese, we do not know who owns The world of tomorrow ?

This study tries to examine the effect of the quality of the institutional framework on the accounts of the balance of payments in a sample of African countries (28 countries) and a sample of countries occupying advanced positions in international economics (15 countries) to determine different indicators of the institutional framework that affect the balances of the current and financial accounts of the balance of payments in the two sample countries through the period 2002-2019. The study applied the panel autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) model, Akaike info criterion (AIC), to determine the short- and long-run relationships. The empirical findings illustrate that the institutional indicators that support the current accounts of the balance of payments, in the long run, are not the same that support the financial accounts of the balance of payments of African countries. In addition, the effect of institutional indicators on international transactions is related to the level of economic development, where the effect of institutional indicators on countries with relatively low levels of economic development is more powerful than their effects on countries with advanced levels of development. Thus, the low quality of the institutional framework is considered an important impediment to the development of international transactions in African countries.

The increasing European consumer awareness of cybersecurity and sustainability issues in e-commerce is raising key methodological concerns. In a field like this, still unexplored by scholars, it is crucial to identify reliable data as well as to choose the modalities of combining primary and secondary data. As the robustness of the outcome of a study on a complex issue is highly sensitive to the quality of the data used, this paper is a communication that aims to complement and support previously published empirical research. This communication describes the methodological path to collect, integrate, and process data from different sources to interpret European consumers’ attitudes towards cybersecurity and sustainability during e-commerce. In fact, COVID-19 has driven many users to shop online, raising concerns especially about the security of digital transactions. Scientific studies analyzing these effects are still lacking in the literature and therefore this paper aims to fill this gap. The limits of a rigid dataset such as Eurostat’s are overcome by integrating the results of European citizens’ behavior during online purchases, with a survey that involved some experts appropriately selected by the research team. The combination of primary and secondary sources of data and the application of a hybrid methodological approach using MCDA (multi-criteria decision analysis) and a Likert scale allowed new information that fills some gaps in the literature to be extracted from the data. How European citizens correlate e-commerce with cybersecurity and sustainability emerged, thus providing important insights for decision-makers.

Social and economic growth relies on the presence of prosperous companies. There are many factors that define the level of entrepreneurship, for example opportunities to undertake cooperation and create networks of companies, or the quality of social capital. The key role is played by actions implemented to strengthen the economic and social activity of local communities. This can be facilitated by one of the sub-measures of the EU programme LEADER, namely “Sub-measure 19.2. Implementation of operations within the strategies for community-led local development”. The main aim of this study has been to diagnose and assess this support in rural areas of the Province of Warmia and Mazury. Secondary data were analyzed with both desk research and statistical methods. The funds allocated under the mentioned sub-measure (482 contracts) enabled beneficiaries to start and develop their own companies in rural areas (261 agreements reached approximately PLN 30 million). Some funds were also spent on improving the situation with regard to the identified weaknesses of this region e.g. weak consistency communication, low level of cooperation and social capital. The implementation of operations under Sub-measure 19.2 should result in the alleviation of weaknesses identified for the province and the stimulation of socio-economic development of the voivodship.

The Seminar on Asian Trade was convened by the institute of Development Economics, Karachi, to discuss certain economic problems which, to a great or less degree, are common to Asian countries and to consider possible methods of economic cooperation among them. There were 25 members from 15 nations, all of which, apart from that of the "Observer", were Asian. Twenty-two papers were presented. The purpose of this preliminary report is to give an account of some of the salient ideas that were put forward. The "Observer" may perhaps be allowed to take this opportunity of recording his impression of the very high quality of the discussions, in respect of their intellectual acumen and brilliance and of the sound grasp of fundamental economic theory manifested by the participants. He does not recall attending any Seminar that out-classed this one in these respects. Thus, the non-Asian countries, which should be seeking a deeper understanding of Asian problems and be giving thought as to how to shape their own policies in the spirit of cooperation, on the basis of the mutual interdependence of prosperity in the world as a whole, may have confidence that, at the top level, there is economic thinking of the highest quality in a number of Asian countries. It does not follow that there is at present a sufficient amount of economic competence at any level. Attention will be drawn later to the urgent need for these countries to build up at the quickest possible rate the number of technologists and other professionally well-qualified classes; not less important is the need to increase the number of those competent in economics, especially as the situation urgently requires a greater amount of economic planning, which is in fact in progress, than may be needed in the more advanced countries.

PERHAPS the most notable feature of the literature of economic development and planning over the past decade has been the discovery—or the belated rediscovery—that capital investment is not the sole source of economic growth; that the quality of the labour force is intimately connected with the (potential) rate of economic growth; that this quality is based on, and can be affected by, the education that members of the labour force received; and that consequently manpower and educational planning is a necessary part of over-all economic planning. Indeed so thoroughly has this new orthodoxy been accepted that some countries now have manpower and educational plans even though they may have no over-all development plan worth speaking of.
