Readiness Level

The electricity sector has a very important role as a source of energy that is vital for everyday life, industrial activities and other commercial activities. To keep electricity prices remain affordable to the public, government allocated electricity subsidy in the APBN. Unfortunately, every year electricity subsidy is more swollen. Therefore needs to consider funding the electricity subsidy sharing mechanism with regional governments. To support these mechanisms, necessary to study and trying to see the readiness level of funding in regional government and the division of authority. By using the methodology of mapping analysis, it can be concluded that the judicial authority of the electricity sector although it has been submitted to the region, but still the absolute authority of the Central Government. Based on the Regional Fiscal Capacity analysis, Jakarta Province, East Kalimantan Province, Papua Province of West and North Borneo are areas that deserve to be a top priority. By using the analysis of the development of regional economic growth from 2008 to 2012, the recommended area is the province of West Papua with an average economic growth, approximately 23.28% compared to Jakarta by 7.75% and by 5.08% in East Kalimantan.

Public Choice Perspective

Federalism is a governance structure that enables the aggregation of mass areas under one government. Federalism is a more complex form of governance than a unitary system. Under a federal structure of government, the activities are constitutionally divided (or shared) between constituent governments and a central government, implying a permanent coexistence and bargaining between participating governments and the center or among participating governments themselves. This chapter delineates the current state of knowledge regarding federalism and its twin concept of decentralization from the public-choice perspective. First, the chapter looks at federalism as an explanatory variable by examining how it shapes various outcomes ranging from economic growth to incidence of terrorism. Second, it deals with endogenous federalism and thus factors that explain how it emerges, survives, and changes. In the last part, the chapter summarizes several potential avenues for future research on federalism.

Economic Stagnation

There is considerable evidence that the size of the public sector can influence an economy’s rate of economic growth. We investigate public sector spending of central governments and economic performance in two G7 countries over the long-term, Canada and Italy. Their economic performance has diverged in the last 25 years and it is worth investigating whether the size of government was a contributing factor. We find that in both the case of Canada and Italy the size of central government spending directly affects the performance of their economies in an inverse U-shaped relationship known as a Scully/BARS Curve. These results suggest that along with modifying current central government size, other levels of governments may need to shrink their own spending. The fact that the amount spent by government on pensions as a percentage of GDP in Italy is nearly 4 times that in Canada may partly explain the higher level of Italy’s public debt as well as an indirect contributing factor to economic stagnation in the last 25 years.

The Government

Since the World Health Organization declared the Corona Covid-19 virus as an epidemic, in the following, the Indonesian Government also stated that the Corona virus problem has become a non-natural national disaster. The President of the Republic of Indonesia and the Regional government together with their staff are helping one another in preventing the spread of Covid-19 in Indonesia. Many government bureaucratic efforts have been made by issuing policies as the initial steps to prevent the spread of Covid-19. As the implementer of the bureaucracy, the Government always strives to provide effective public services in efforts to prevent the spread of the Corona Covid-19 virus in society. From the central level to the heads of the provinces, Regencies and even the municipal governments. This study applies the content analysis method, in which the content analysis is limited to newspaper media which convey information related to some policies information presented by each head of government, both in several regions and countries. The purpose of this research is to provide education to the public in dealing with global disasters and efforts to prevent them. The results show that the bureaucratic efforts of the central government and local governments through various policies have carried out many communication strategies for their respective regional communities through coercion, informative, expulsion, targeting, persuasion and excess techniques in message packages in the form of instructions, to the public to prevent Covid-19 in their area. However, the techniques of coercion up to the approval stage are enforced to prevent the effect of violations on offenders. The central government in this case has not maximized its roles in implementing a comprehensive communication strategy for all local governments. This is due to the absence of the National Command from the central government which seems to be slow in preventing the transmission of Covid-19, which has become a global disaster, including in Indonesia.

The Impact

The aim of this study is to examine the impact of fiscal decentralisation on the size of the public sector and economic growth in Turkey. An empirical test of the Leviathan hypothesis by using recently developed econometrical tools shows that fiscal decentralisation does not curb the growth of central government. The finding is not compatible with explanations of the efficiency benefits of greater decentralisation. An investigation of the impacts of fiscal decentralisation on economic growth by utilising time series in a framework of the production function for the period 1982–2000 and cross-section analyses on sixty-seven provinces indicates that there is a negative relationship between fiscal decentralisation and economic growth.

Permasalahan mendasar dalam proses pelayanan publik di Indonesia adalah tentang etika. Tidak ada standar universal tentang norma atau etika serta sanksi yang mengatur secara khusus untuk pelanggaran yang dilakukan aparat dalam pelayanan publik. Kata Kunci : Pelayanan publik, Etika, Norma     Abstract Public services are all activities in order to fulfill basic needs in accordance with the basic rights of every citizen and resident of an item, service and / or administrative service provided by service providers related to the public interest.
