No full textArtikel ini mencoba melihat hubungan antara korupsi, utang, dan kemiskinan berdasarkan data subregional dan global. Dengan menggunakan analisis korelasi, ditemukan adanya korelasi negatif yang signifikan dan kuat antara korupsi dan prevalensi kemiskinan.

Negara berkembang yang miskin cenderung lebih tinggi tingkat korupsinya dibandingkan dengan negara industri yang kaya. Berdasarkan data Asia Pasifik, jelas tampak hubungan yang negatif antara kemiskinan dengan korupsi. Korelasi yang negatif ini juga tampak dalam hubungan antara korupsi dengan pertumbuhan ekonomi. Tingkat utang luar negeri suatu negara menunjukkan hubungan yang positif dengan tingkat kemiskinan, sedangkan tingkat utang berkorelasi negatif dengan korupsi. Namun, investasi langsungpihak asing akan mengurangi kemiskinan karena kedua variabel itu berkorelasi negatif. Pemberantasan korupsi seharusnya mempertinggi pertumbuhan ekonomi dan meningkatkan efektivitas penggunaan utang luar negeri, yang akhirnya dapat mengurangi tingkat kemiskinan.

DINAMIKA PENGUSAHA INDUSTRI COR LOGAM DI MASA KRISIS
No full textInitially, metalworking can be quite reliable because, besides its substantial contribution to the economic progress of the local population, it has also absorbed a very substantial proportion of labor force, both local and from other districts. From the onset of the current economic crisis, metalworking has experienced a tremendous decline. This has been mainly due to the high production cost, which can not be compensated by the low selling price. The undesirable consequence of this trend is that many entrepreneurs have been forced out of business, hence, stopped production. The few who have persisted in business must really strain themselves for the sake of business survival. Their effort is mainly to keep the production cost as low as possible. This can be achieved by reducing the quantity of raw materials used, closer and tighter monitoring of the production process, and changing the system of paying workers. Although these efforts have been applied, the limited number of orders that they receive has forced most of the entrepreneurs to suspend production. There is therefore, an urgent need to seek alternative solutions to this pressing problem

FORGOTTEN VILLAGES? THE EFFECTS OF THE CRISIS IN RURAL JAVA AND THE ROLE OF THE GOVERNMENT
Get PDFTulisan ini berusaha menganalisis dua hal pokok, yakni dampak krisis di perdesaan Jawa dan respons pemerintah lokal/pemerintahan desa terhadap krisis moneter. Secara tegas dikatakan bahwa masyarakat perdesaan Jawa heterogen dan penuh dengan variasi dan ketidaksamaan. Oleh karena itu,dampak krisis moneter di desajuga sangat bervariasi tergantung pada wilayah, status sosial ekonomi, pekerjaan, dan sistem ekonomi. Karena krisis,ada kelompok masyarakat yang "menang" (diuntungkan) yaitu kelompok yang mempunyai akses terhadap sumber daya dan ada kelompok yang "kalah" (dirugikan) yaitu kelompok masyarakat miskin. Selama krisis, berbagai institusi tradisional yang berfungsi sebagai social security, seperti gotong-royong dan solidaritas sosial lainnya tidak berperan besar. Bahkan, pemerintah lokal/pemerintahan desa pun tidak melakukan upaya maksimal dalam menghadapinya. Dalam kenyataannya,peran aktivitas individual jauh lebih besar dibandingkan dengan aktivitas kolektif
