| Agus Eko Nugroho | Volatilitas Dana Perbankan dan Implikasinya terhadap Krisis Perbankan di Indonesia | In the wake of the Asian financial crisis of 1997/1998 illiquidity of financial and corporate sectors has been refereed to as a root cause of the crises. Considering this issue, it becomes customary that a sound banking liquidity management is important for both banking practices as well as banking authority. The reason is because a presence of liquidity mismatch more likely leads to the decrease in depositors' confidence toward the financial condition of banks, corresponding to banking panics. A sound liquidity management is essential for effective monetary policy because it provides a basis for stability of banking and financial system. For this reason, this study aims at investigating determinants affecting the change in funding volatility of banks. Using the monetary and banking data, the study concludes that the change in the rupiah exchange rate, interest rate of SBI, the Jakarta stock price index (IHSG), banking equity and asset and a number of bank significantly contribute to the change in funding volatility of banks. The study also revelas that funding volatility of banks and the change in the rupiah exchange rate is an important determinant for the likelihood of banking crisis in Indonesia. |
| Dedi S. Adhuri | Beyond Economy: Menyoal Masalah Identitas pada Konflik-Konflik Kenelayanan | The Indonesian government argues that the sea bridges the many islands and different peoples of Indonesia. Politically, this might be appropriate as a means of encouraging people to think that wherever and whoever there are, they are united as Indonesians. When this ideology is used for maritime resource management, however it creates problems. One problem is because the ideology misleads government to think that conflicts over maritime resources concern only economic issue. This article will demonstrate that there is something beyond economy that should have been considered to understand these conflicts, namely, social identity. Even in accesing the sea (fishing grounds), I will argue, people, however vaguely, talk about 'We' and 'they' in defining who has the right to a particular fishing ground and who should be excluded. By analyzing conflicts that have taken part in different places in Indonesia, I will demonstrate that ethnicity and local sitizenship have been used as the defining factor of 'We' and 'They'. In particular context, ethnicity and local sitizenship define whether fishermen can acces marine resources. Thus, at the practical level the sea does not unite Indonesians, and it is in fact, ethnicity and regionalism that divides the Indonesian seas. Additionally, at the end of the paper, I will discuss the relevance of the association of social identity with local marine teritory and resources for creating a better marine resource management. |
| Yasmin Sungkar | Indonesia's Economic Recovery: Issues of Privatization | Krisis ekonomi yang melanda negara-negara di Asia sejak 1997 mulai berangsur pulih. Namun Indonesia tertinggal jauh dari Malaysia, Thailand dan Korea Selatan dalam proses menuju pemulihan ekonomi. Hal ini dikarenakan krisis ekonomi di Indonesia diikuti krisis politik dan sosial yang tentunya memerlukan penyelesaian yang menyeluruh. Oleh karena itu krisis yang bermula dari jatuhnya mata uang rupiah tidak bisa diselesaikan dengan pendekatan ekonomi saja, namun juga harus dibarengi dengan pemulihan politik dan sosial. Privatisasi -sebagai bagian dari program pemulihan ekonomi- adalah salah satu masalah yang mencerminkan gagalnya pendekatan sektoral, yaitu dari segi ekonomi saja. Keputusan membenahi sektor publik ini memerlukan kemauan politik yang kuat dan landasan hukum yang jelas. Tulisan ini mencoba menganalisa persoalan di balik privatisasi, mengapa pemerintah percaya pada manfaat privatisasi serta apa dan siapa saja yang masih menjadi penghalang proses privatisasi. |
| Amri Marzali | Disintegrasi Nasional: Sebuah Warisan Ekonomi-Politik Orde Baru | This article discusses separatism movement phenomena in Indonesia that has been occured after Soeharto Era in 1998. Amri Marzali relates the phenomena with Soeharto's basic economy policy, Professor Widjoyo Nitisastro as the advisor, i.e. liberal capitalism economic system. He considers the economic system is not suitable with socio-cultural condition in Indonesian native who has mostly subsistent farmers during the new order period. They are unable to compete with liberal capitalism situation. Consequently, they are under develop. Meanwhile, the mechanism of funding transfer from 'strong' to 'weak' sector does not work well. This creates serious economic gap among ethnic groups and regions. |
