Analisis Dampak Belanja Pemerintah Daerah Terhadap Pertumbuhan Ekonomi Inklusif Jawa Timur

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk meneliti pengaruh belanja fungsi ekonomi, fungsi kesehatan, dan fungsi pendidikan sebagai variabel utama serta pdrb perkapita dan tingkat pengangguran terbuka sebagai variabel kontrol terhadap Indeks Pembangunan Ekonomi Inklusif (IPEI) sebagai proxy dari pertumbuhan ekonomi inklusif. Metode yang digunakan adalah Panel Vector Error Correction Model (PVECM) pada 38 kabupaten/kota di Jawa Timur selama kurun waktu 2014-2018. Dari hasil penelitian terlihat bahwa belanja fungsi ekonomi, fungsi kesehatan, fungsi pendidikan, dan pdrb perkapita berpengaruh positif signifikan terhadap pertumbuhan ekonomi inklusif dalam jangka panjang. Sedangkan tingkat pengangguran terbuka berpengaruh negatif. Dalam jangka pendek, belanja fungsi kesehatan dan belanja fungsi pendidikan berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap pertumbuhaan ekonomi inklusif, sedangkan belanja fungsi ekonomi, pdrb perkapita, dan tingkat pengangguran terbuka tidak berpengaruh terhadap pertumbuhan ekonomi inklusif. Kontribusi belanja fungsi ekonomi, fungsi kesehatan, fungsi pendidikan, pdrb perkapita dan tingkat pengangguran terbuka terhadap pertumbuhan ekonomi inklusif yaitu sebesar 47 persen. Hal ini berarti juga terdapat peran faktor lain termasuk peran swasta dalam menggerakkan perkembangan pembangunan ekonomi inklusif di Jawa Timur.

The Impact of Financial Accountability, Internal Control and Government Expenditure on Social Welfare

“…Local budgeting is used to provide basic needs for society. Previous studies find a positive correlation between governments expenditure and welfare indicators, including HDI (Fadilah et al, 2018;Fahmi & Dalimunthe, 2018;Palayukan, 2019), IEGI (Purwanti & Rahmawati, 2021;Safitri et al, 2021), reducing poverty (Mustaqimah et al, 2017;Pratama & Utama, 2019), decreasing unemployment (Kaharudin et al, 2019;Muslim, 2014), and economic growth (Nurlina, 2015;Patanduk et al, 2019;Putri et al, 2018;Wahyudi, 2020). However, an increase in the local budgeting does not necessarily mean an increase in welfare (Leland, 2005).…”

“…Indonesia follows welfare state concept since its independence day (Purwanti & Rahmawati, 2021;Safitri et al, 2021) (Elviandri et al, 2019;Prasetyo, 2012) but nowadays only few people achieved welfare (Alfitri, 2012). Welfare state is the state guarantee for the availability of basic services to achieve or maintain welfare (Alfitri, 2012;Elviandri et al, 2019).…”

Fostering Inclusive Growth in Indonesia: Evidence from Panel Regression Analysis

“…Furthermore, government spending can help narrow the gap, especially between the rich and the poor. Equitable distribution of infrastructure, education and public health will increase access, especially for the poor, to markets and economic opportunities (Estrada et al, 2014;Fitrianasari et al, 2022;Hur, 2014;Johansson, 2016;Safitri et al, 2021). Meanwhile, spending on social protection has a bigger goal in terms of redistribution and risk sharing and creating a social safety net (Hur, 2014;Johansson, 2016;Long & Pasaribu, 2019).…”

“…In terms of achieving equality, public investment in education during 2015-2019 was able to expand access and educational opportunities for all communities, including the poor and marginalized groups, thereby creating inclusive growth (Fitrianasari et al, 2022;Safitri et al, 2021). Educated individuals are believed to have a better level of welfare (Ambya, 2020;Hur, 2014;Misdawita & Sari, 2013;Taruno, 2019).…”

“…Government spending has an important role in affecting efficiency and economic growth as well as equity. Several literatures show that government spending on health, education, economy or infrastructure, and social protection can promote economic growth (Ambya, 2020;Johansson, 2016), reduce inequality (Balakrishnan et al, 2013;Hur, 2014;Johansson, 2016), reduce poverty (Misdawita & Sari, 2013;Taruno, 2019), and create more inclusive growth (Fitrianasari et al, 2022;Safitri et al, 2021). On the other hand, Arjona et al (2003) found a negative impact of government spending on social protection on inclusive growth due to demotivation of the workforce, while Taruno (2019) found an insignificant impact.…”
