This study attempts to examine the influence of fiscal decentralization and regional autonomy on regional economic growth in Indonesia by using panel data analysis and the Hodrick-Prescott (HP) filter. This study takes sample at provincial level (selected 19 provinces) in Indonesia in the period of 1994-2010. Furthermore, to represents the fiscal decentralization this thesis uses three indicators, namely expenditure share, revenue share, and local government's own revenue share. Further, regional autonomy is treated as dummy variable with base year of 2004. The result demonstrates that fiscal decentralization is positively associated with economic growth in Indonesia, especially from the revenue side and own revenue side. The findings further strengthens the decentralization theorem and previous studies that mentioned fiscal decentralization play a role in foster the economic growth. In addition, it is also found that the implementation of regional autonomy policy (aggregate decentralization effect) presents positive relationship to economic growth.Keywords : Fiscal Decentralization; Regional Autonomy; Economic GrowthStudi ini mencoba untuk menguji pengaruh desentralisasi fiskal dan otonomi daerah terhadap pertumbuhan ekonomi daerah di Indonesia dengan menggunakan metode analisis data panel dan analisis Hodrick-Prescott (HP) filter. Studi ini mengambil sampel pada level provinsi (19 provinsi terpilih) di Indonesia pada periode 1994-2010. Indikator yang digunakan untuk mewakili pengukuran desentralisasi fiskal ada tiga, yaitu indikator rasio pengeluaran, indikator rasio pendapatan, dan indikator rasio pendapatan asli pemerintah daerah. Sedangkan otonomi daerah diperlakukan sebagai dummy variable dengan acuan tahun 2004 sebagai tahun dasar. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa desentralisasi fiskal secara positif turut mempengaruhi pertumbuhan ekonomi di Indonesia, terutama dari sisi pendapatan dan dari sisi peningkatan pendapatan asli daerah. Temuan ini semakin memperkuat decentralization theorem dan studistudi sebelumnya yang menyebutkan bahwa desentralisasi fiskal cukup berperan penting dalam mendorong pertumbuhan ekonomi. Selain itu, juga ditemukan bahwa implementasi kebijakan otonomi daerah (aggregate effect desentralisasi) menunjukkan adanya hubungan positif terhadap peningkatan pertumbuhan ekonomi daerah.Kata Kunci : Desentralisasi Fiskal; Otonomi Daerah; Pertumbuhan Ekonomi

Governance has gone through radical changes over the last twenty five years.Seemingly, it became one of the important strategies, processes, methods and mechanisms in governing countries to achieve economic development goals. The objective of this paper is to observe the local economic governance dynamics in the case of districts/municipalities in Indonesia. First, the dynamics behavior of local governance over time is analyzed by visual inspection of their non-parametric density distribution. More deeply, we use Markov chains to predict a pattern of change in local economic governance toward its steady state. Based on comparison between 2007 and 2011 data delivered by Commission of Regional Autonomy Implementation Watch, we conclude that there is a high level of persistence in the relative position of local governance index, consistent with a low degree of mobility in the index distribution implying the implementation of governance in the districts/municipalities in Indonesia is weak enough. This finding implies that the local economic governance is a key to achieve sustainable regional economic growth in line with fiscal decentralization and regional autonomy.Keywords : Local Economic Governance, Decentralization, Regional Economic Growth, Kernel Densities, Markov ChainsJEL Classification: H70, O43, O56

The relationship between financial development and economic growth has been the subject of considerable debate in development and growth literature. Therefore this chapter provides evidence on the role of financial development in accounting for economic growth in 23 OECD countries (Italy, Japan, Luxemburg, Holland, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, England, USA, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, Turkey, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland) via panel data analysis using the annual data for the period 1980-2012. The authors find a positive relationship between financial development and economic growth for all countries. Also this result means that financial development leads economic growth in these countries. So the results may help policymakers formulate effective financial sector policies as a tool to promote economic growth.

This study aimed to analyze the influence of regional revenue, capital expenditures, labor and small and medium enterprises towards the regional economic growth in the Regencies in Sulawesi Island. This study uses a quantitative approach with secondary data obtained from the Central Statistics Agency. Based on the results of the panel data analysis using EViews 8.0 program processing tools, the results indicate that in partial local revenue, capital expenditures, labor, small and medium enterprises have significant positive effect on regional economic growth in the Regency/City of the island of Sulawesi. Another  conclusion  of  the  results  in  this  research  are  feasible  estimated regression model is used to explain the economic growth of the Regency/City of the island of Sulawesi.

This study examines the impact of fiscal decentralization on regional economic growth using panel data for 82 subjects of the Russian Federation for the period 2005-2018. General theoretical framework was drawn from the second-generation theory of fiscal federalism, and panel data econometrics suggested the appropriate empirical model and estimation method. The pooled mean group method was used to estimate an autoregressive distributed lags model based on Solow-Swan theory of economic growth. The results indicate that vertical fiscal gap has a negative and significant long-term impact on regional economic growth while vertical fiscal imbalance has a positive and significant long-term effect. The study is consistent with the modern theory of fiscal federalism, W.E. Oates’ matching hypothesis and previous empirical work using Russian data. The study also found evidence of conditional convergence of regional economies.

This paper mainly assesses the influence of entrepreneurship over regional economic growth (REG) and the investment in research and development (R&D), and puts forward countermeasures to promote the REG. The fixed effects model for panel data analysis was adopted to evaluate how entrepreneurship directly affects REG and indirectly affects REG via R&D investment. The results show that the entrepreneurial and innovative spirits of entrepreneurs promote economic growth; the promoting effect of entrepreneurial spirit is greater than that of innovative spirit; R&D investment mediates the influence of entrepreneurship over economic growth; the three major economic regions of China, namely, East, Central, and West China, have different laws in the influence of entrepreneurial spirit and innovative spirit on economic growth and R&D investment, owing to the variation in resources endowment and entrepreneurship allocation. The research results help policy-makers formulate regional economic development strategies in the light of entrepreneurship configuration and R&D investment.
