This paper analysis direct and indirect impacts of technological progress on Indonesia’s global competitiveness, with economic growth and human development as moderator variables. Time series data on technological progress, economic growth, human development and global competitiveness of Indonesia were collected many sources and employed in a path analysis model. The results showed that technological progress had a negative and significant direct impact on the global competitiveness. Technological progress had also negative and significant direct impact on human development. Furthermore, technological progress had a positive and significant direct impact on economic growth, and economic growth had positive impact on human development and negative impact on global competitiveness. Indirectly, the impacts of technological progress on global competitiveness varied depend on the path. At P43-P31, indirect impact through human development, the impact was negative and significant. At P43-P32-P21, indirect impact through human development and economic growth, the impact was positive and significant. Finally, at P42-P21, indirect impact through economic growth, the impact was negative and significant. These findings confirm other research by Author using cross-nations data.

Employing the Indonesian input-output tables both as data sources and as method of analysis, this paper discusses production structure, consumption pattern and the role of maize and soybean in the Indonesian economy. The production structure is discussed by showing the structure of input in producing these commodities; the consumption pattern is indicated by the pattern of output distribution; while the role of these commodities in the national economy is indicated by input-output multipliers. Finally, concluding remarks are provided at the end of the paper.

Employing the concept of black-box system operasionalied by input-output model, this paper analyses linkages and the role of tourism sectors in the economy of Bali. After explaining the method of analysis, an example of black box system consist of input, proses and output of tourism sectors is presented based on the input-output table of Bali. This paper then discusses linkages: direct, open and closed linkages of tourism sectors in the economy of Bali. Disaggregated output, income and import multipliers of these sectors are also provided to indicate which sectors involved. Summary and conclusion are finally provided at the end of the paper.

This paper reports a research that aimed to analysis the contribution of technology on Indonesian economy at national, sectoral and spatial perspectives. Growth accounting decomposition technique was employed to calculate the contribution of factors production in the economy. The results showed that, on average, technology contribution to Indonesian economy, in term of TFP growth, was too small (8.79%) if compared to the TFP growth of other countries, especially in the developed countries. Even if compared with the contribution of other factors contribution, such as capital (74.1%) and labor (17.1%). Sectorally, the contribution of technology on Indonesian economy varied among sector. The highest and gave positive contribution were Other Services (72.6%) and Manufacturing (52.6%). The lowest and gave negative contribution were Agriculture (-55.1%) and Financial, Rental and Corporate Services (-38.7%). Spatially, the contribution of technology on Indonesian economy also varied. The highest and gave positive contribution were the Island of Java (47.9%) and Bali-Nusa Tenggara Island (30.4%). The lowest and gave negative contributions were Maluku-Papua Islands (-95.4%) and Kalimantan Island (-24.7%)

This paper proposes a new hybrid procedure for constructing inter-regional input-output model for an island economy, with special reference to Indonesia. Tlteoretical framework of input-output model concerned with regional dimension is firstly discussed. Hybrid techniques for constructing inter-regional input-output table are then critically reviewed. Four important considerations in which the procedure are based upon are stressed before the proposed procedure is fidly described.

This paper provides and discusses empirical application of the GIR10T (Generation of Inter-Regional Input-Output Tables) procedure; a hybrid technique in constructing regional and inter-regional input-output tables designed for island economy. Regional definitions and sectoral classifications are firstly discussed, then followed by description of data and their sources. Phase by phase application of the procedure is then provided and discussed. The validity of the model is examined by inspecting the proportion of regional imports, the pattern of inter-regional trade flows, .the stability of multipliers, as well as by conducting sensitivity analysis. Finally, some notes regarding the problems and the prospects of the procedure are also stressed.

The research reported in this monograph had two main objectives. The first objective was to assess the relevance, feasibility and practicality of modeling the spatial structure of a developing island economy using a hybrid procedure to generate inter-regional input-output tables. The second objective was to apply the procedure to study the spatial structure of the island economy of Indonesia. The model proved useful for analyzing the spatial structure of the island economy of Indonesia as well as the impact of policy simulations. It offers five further contributions : (1) an evaluation of the current methods used to construct single-region and inter-regional input-output tables in Indonesia; (2) the development of an appropriate hybrid procedure to construct both single-region and inter-regional input-output tables for an island economy in a developing country; (3) an application of the inter-regional input-output model to analyze the spatial structure of Indonesia’s island economy; (4) developmental methods of validating inter-regional input-output tables; and (5) analysis of the sectoral, spatial and spatial-sector significance of an island economy.

This paper provides evidences on the existence of the Philips curve in an economy.The Philips curve depicted a negative correlation between the rate of inflation and unemployment rate. This dilemma has been a big problem faced by any government. Inflation cannot be eliminated without raising unemployment, at least for some time and moderate unemployment cannot be cut sharply without the risk of raising inflation. It was empirically evidence that this curve exist in the short-run. In the short run, inflation cannot be reduced without creating a recession. In the long run, many research proved that there was not any trade-off between inflation and unemployment. Data from Australia (1980-2015), South Korea (1980-2015) and Indonesia (1995-2015) have been used to provide evidence on the existence of Philips curve in the long run, using regression analysis. The results provide evidences that there were negative correlation between the rate of inflation and unemployment rate.It means that in the long run, the Philips curve do exist in the economy, even though the relationship between them was not statistically significant.

Paper ini membahas model input-ouput, khususnya model-model berdimensi wilayah, sebagai metoda analisis dan perencanaan ekonomi wilayah. Pertama-tama, kerangka dasar model dijelaskan dan dilengkapi dengan beberapa contoh tabel transaksi. Model-model yang berdimensi wilayah kemudian dibahas dan dilanjutkan dengan membahas berbagai kegunaan model, baik kegunaan deskriptif maupun kegunaan analitik, khususnya untuk keperluan perencanaan ekonomi wilayah. Akhirnya, beberapa kelemahan model juga dikemukakan.

This paper discusses the spatial structure of the Indonesian economy using an inter-island input-output model. The model is constructed applying a new hybrid procedure designed specifically for an island economy. The spatial structure is analyzes by presenting spatial mul tipliers and flow-on effects as well as the index of spill-over and feed-back, effects.
