Abstract

This study investigates the socioeconomic dynamics of food price volatility and its asymmetric impacts on regional inflation across Java and Sumatra, Indonesia’s two most economically influential islands. The research aims to analyze the short- and long-term effects of food commodity price fluctuations on regional inflation, compare the structure and magnitude of price transmission mechanisms between the two regions, and identify key commodities that drive inflation disparities. Using a quantitative explanatory approach integrated with sociological interpretation, monthly time-series data from 2020 to 2024 across six provinces are analyzed through ADF stationarity tests, VAR/VECM models, Granger causality, impulse response functions, and variance decomposition, complemented by sociological indicators such as logistics index, GRDP per capita, and household food expenditure ratio. The findings show that short-term inflationary pressures stem mainly from price shocks in red chili, shallots, and cooking oil, while long-term persistence is driven by dependence on rice, beef, and chili. Inflation in Java is largely demand-driven, whereas Sumatra’s inflation reflects supply-side constraints and weak market integration. The study’s novelty lies in combining macroeconomic modeling with regional sociological analysis, offering a socioeconomic inflation dynamics framework that reframes inflation as a socially embedded process. The research advances economic sociology by linking inflation behavior with social structure, regional inequality, and policy responsiveness.

Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic that began in March 2020 has shaken the world economy and Indonesia. To reduce transmission that is so fast and deadly, the government implemented a new normal policy of social restrictions that limit people's mobility and carry out activities by implementing health protocols. As a result of the enactment of social restrictions, there is a decrease in consumer purchasing power so that many business actors experience a decrease in turnover to go out of business. This devotion aims to analyze and recommend the right strategies in strengthening micro-businesses to be able to survive in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic. The methods used are methods of science transfer, guidance, training, and mentoring. There is a change in the understanding of micro-businesses in managing effective human resources. Partners have been able to carry out a healthy, clean, safe and nutritious production process. This devotion also makes financial management partners and systematically registrars the stock of goods and production products. The partner becomes aware of the applicable legal system so as to be able to carry out business activities without breaking the law.

Abstract

Governance in Indonesia has experienced significant changes since the post-Reformation era of 1988, particularly with the implementation of Law Number 22 of 1999 on Regional Government, which initiated the decentralization of authority from the central to regional governments. This implementation was further reinforced by Law Number 32 of 2004, which emphasized the obligation of regional governments to manage their own affairs based on the principle of autonomy. This study examines the influence of asset management on the optimization of fixed assets in the Government of Batu Bara Regency. The population in this study consisted of 99 employees distributed across 35 work units, resulting in a sample of 79 respondents representing the population. The analysis method used was Partial Least Square (PLS), with questionnaires distributed to 79 respondents. The results showed that asset inventory did not have a significant influence on the optimization of fixed assets, whereas asset legal audit and asset valuation had a positive and significant influence. Asset supervision and control were found to moderate the influence of asset inventory on the optimization of fixed assets, but did not significantly moderate the influence of asset legal audit and asset valuation.
