Abstract

This study aims to analyze the role of the Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) sector in reducing poverty and supporting economic growth in East Java Province during the 2018-2023 period. The research employed a mixed-methods approach combining quantitative analysis of secondary data from the Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS), the East Java Provincial Office of Cooperatives and MSMEs, and the Ministry of Cooperatives and SMEs of the Republic of Indonesia, with qualitative analysis through interviews and policy document studies. The results show that MSMEs in East Java make a significant contribution to the economy, with an increase in contribution to Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) from 58.3% in 2018 to 61.2% in 2023, while absorbing approximately 95% of the province's total workforce. Correlation analysis reveals a strong negative relationship between MSME labor absorption and poverty rates (correlation coefficient -0.87), where every 1% increase in MSME employment correlates with a 0.72% decrease in poverty. However, MSMEs still face major constraints including limited access to capital (only 23% have access to bank credit), low adoption of digital technology (35% have a presence in digital markets), suboptimal product quality, and limited market access. Government policies such as People's Business Credit (KUR), business capacity training, and licensing simplification have had positive impacts, but their effectiveness needs to be enhanced through more integrated policy coordination and sustainable mentoring. This study recommends improving access to capital, strengthening digital technology capacity, enhancing product quality, and expanding market access to optimize the role of MSMEs in poverty reduction and economic growth in East Java.

Abstract

Globalization has significantly changed the competitive dynamics of the Indonesian batik industry, presenting both opportunities and challenges. This study aims to analyze the managerial strategies implemented to maintain and enhance the competitiveness of the batik industry in the era of globalization. A qualitative approach with a literature review of relevant scientific sources was employed. The findings reveal that globalization intensifies competition, particularly due to the influx of mass-produced batik-patterned textile products from abroad. In response, batik industry players need to adopt integrated managerial strategies, including product innovation based on local wisdom, the use of digital technology in marketing, human resource competency development through training, and the optimization of the marketing mix. The implementation of these strategies has been shown to positively impact business performance, market expansion, and the long-term sustainability of the batik industry. The study implies that an adaptive and holistic managerial approach is essential to navigating the complexities of global competition.

Abstract

This study aims to examine economic actors’ perspectives on the importance of money in daily interactions and transactions, as well as in managerial decision-making processes. As a medium of exchange, money not only facilitates the exchange of goods and services but also shapes more efficient and structured economic behavior. In the context of modern business, money functions as a planning tool, a basis for investment decision-making, a means of control and evaluation, a determinant of risk, and a source of motivation and incentives. Furthermore, developments in payment technologies have expanded the understanding of the functions of money in economic activities. The findings of this study are expected to contribute to microeconomic literature, particularly in understanding the behavior of economic and managerial actors in utilizing money as a key instrument in daily activities and decision-making.

Abstract

Economic globalization has significantly driven the increase in international trade activities, cross-border investments, and global capital flows, making exchange rates and foreign currency crucial elements in an open economy. This study aims to comprehensively examine the concept of exchange rates and foreign currency, their strategic role in the global economy, and the factors influencing exchange rate movements and volatility. The method employed in this study is a descriptive-qualitative approach through a literature review of macroeconomic theories, foreign exchange markets, exchange rate systems, and exchange rate risk management practices. The findings indicate that exchange rates not only function as a medium of currency exchange but also reflect fundamental economic strength, monetary stability, and market participants' expectations regarding a country's prospects. Foreign currency plays an important role in facilitating international trade, investment, and global economic integration; however, high exchange rate fluctuations have the potential to create economic risks, particularly for developing countries. Exchange rate volatility is influenced by fundamental and technical factors, including inflation, interest rates, national income, government policies, and market speculation. This study confirms that exchange rate management and foreign exchange risk mitigation are strategic necessities for governments, businesses, and financial institutions to maintain economic stability and enhance national competitiveness in facing the dynamics of the global economy.

Abstract

No country can live alone. This is due to the limitations of the resources it possesses. Therefore, a country will need other countries. In order to fulfill their needs, every country engages in trade relations. This trade relationship between countries is also called international trade. Why does every country engage in international trade? Because by engaging in international trade, many benefits are obtained, although there are also losses that will be incurred. Each country also has its own policies to protect their domestic economy from the negative impacts of competition arising from international trade. International trade allows the entry of goods and services from abroad into the country. If goods and services from abroad are more abundant and more in demand by the public compared to domestic products, then this will have a negative impact on the domestic economy. Therefore, the government needs to formulate an international trade policy.

Abstract

The development of the global digital economy has become a major driver of the transformation of the world's economic structure and has accelerated the shift of global business centers from developed countries towards the Asian region. Indonesia, as a developing country with a continuously increasing rate of digital technology adoption, has a strategic opportunity to leverage this phenomenon to boost national economic growth. This study aims to analyze the role of the global digital economy and the shift in global business centers on Indonesia's economic growth from the perspective of management science. The research method employed is a qualitative approach with a systematic literature review of nationally accredited SINTA journals, official reports from government agencies, and relevant publications from the 2020–2025 period. The results of the study indicate that the digital economy significantly contributes to economic growth through increased productivity, operational efficiency, expanded market access, and enhanced competitiveness. The shift in global business centers also opens up opportunities for increased investment and Indonesia's integration into global value chains. However, the digital infrastructure gap and limited human resource competency remain major challenges. This research is expected to serve as a reference for policymakers and management practitioners in formulating strategies for sustainable digital economy development.

Abstract

Indonesia's Balance of Payments is a crucial indicator in assessing the country's economic performance. The Balance of Payments reflects all economic transactions between Indonesian residents and the international community over a specific period. The purpose of writing this paper is to analyze the development of Indonesia's Balance of Payments, the factors influencing it, and its implications for macroeconomic management policies. The method used is a literature study with a descriptive-analytical approach to Indonesia's economic data and policies. The results of the study indicate that the dynamics of Indonesia's Balance of Payments are significantly influenced by export-import performance, foreign capital flows, and the stability of the financial sector. Therefore, an integrated economic management strategy is needed to maintain external balance and support sustainable economic growth.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the correlative relationship between the national inflation rate and two crucial socioeconomic variables: public purchasing power and the poverty rate in Indonesia. High inflation is suspected to have a dual impact: directly eroding the real value of income (purchasing power) and indirectly potentially increasing the number of poor people. The research method used is quantitative with a time-series data analysis approach. Secondary data was obtained from Statistics Indonesia (BPS) and Bank Indonesia over a significant period (e.g., the last 10-20 years). Data analysis was conducted using Pearson/Spearman correlation and multiple linear regression techniques to measure the strength and direction of the relationships between variables, as well as to test the significance of inflation's influence on purchasing power and poverty, while controlling for variables such as GDP growth and the unemployment rate. The results of the study are expected to empirically prove a significant negative correlation between inflation and public purchasing power, as well as a positive correlation between inflation and the poverty rate. These findings are hoped to serve as consideration for policymakers (the government and central bank) in formulating and evaluating monetary, fiscal, and social protection programs. Policy recommendations will focus on the importance of maintaining price stability as a fundamental effort to safeguard public purchasing power and prevent increased economic vulnerability leading to poverty.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the factors causing income inequality in Indonesia and its impact on national economic growth. The research employs a descriptive qualitative approach through literature study from various scientific sources and secondary data, including publications from the Indonesian Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS). The findings reveal that income inequality in Indonesia is driven by three main factors: first, disparities in access to quality education between urban and rural areas, creating gaps in workforce skills and productivity; second, unequal access to productive capital such as land, bank credit, and technology, which reinforces economic concentration among specific groups; third, imbalanced regional development, particularly between Java and outer islands, causing infrastructure gaps and unequal economic opportunities. The impact of this inequality on economic growth is significant, including limited domestic consumption due to low purchasing power, hindered investment and innovation due to underdeveloped markets, and increased risk of social instability disrupting the business climate. Although some perspectives suggest inequality can stimulate short-term growth through investment accumulation, this study confirms that in the long term, high inequality becomes a major obstacle to sustainable economic development. The policy implications emphasize the importance of equitable access to education and healthcare, strengthening financial inclusion, balanced infrastructure development, and progressive taxation systems combined with targeted social assistance programs to create inclusive and equitable economic growth.

Abstract

Economic development is a multidimensional process aimed at increasing a society's per capita income while simultaneously realizing fundamental changes in a country's economic structure, shifting from traditional to modern sectors. This journal aims to analyze the determinant factors influencing the success of economic development, focusing on the intervention of fiscal and monetary policies and the role of sustainable development in developing countries. This research employs a literature study method with a descriptive qualitative approach, reviewing various scientific sources such as development economics textbooks and accredited journal articles. The findings indicate that the success of economic development is not only measured by gross domestic product growth (quantitative aspect) but also by social indicators such as the Quality of Life Index, income distribution, and the enhancement of human resource capacity. Furthermore, the implementation of the sustainable development concept is found to be crucial to ensuring that current economic improvements do not compromise the needs of future generations. In conclusion, the synergy between well-targeted economic policies, institutional strengthening, and active community participation are essential prerequisites for achieving inclusive and sustainable economic development.
