Abstract

This paper looks at the pattern of inequality and convergence of Indonesia’s regional income since the 1970s. Although economic growth frameworks have mostly been applied to analyse cross-country growth and convergence, some regional country studies have been done. However, the impact of the macroeconomic conditions at the national level on regional inequality and the convergence process need to be incorporated. Indonesia is an interesting case study, since the economy has been through much turbulence in the last few decades from external shocks as well as some major national policy changes. The different record in sub national development has made regional inequality and growth a crucial topic. It shows the pattern has been affected by a few of major changes in Indonesian policies and economic development, including macroeconomic conditions and structural change.
