Abstract

Fiscal decentralization is often touted as a way to improve accountability and service delivery in Africa, but the results are varied. This systematic review assessed decentralization reforms across eight African countries from 2015 to 2025, examining 48 studies in accordance with the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. We found that 50% of the studies reported improvements in service delivery and revenue collection. Insufficient institutions facilitate elite capture, corruption and suboptimal resource allocation. Success depends on institutional quality, political commitment, and the order of reforms. Common challenges include difficulties in revenue retention, capacity constraints, political interference, and dependence on central transfers. Participatory budgeting, sequenced reforms, property taxation, and digital systems demonstrate enhanced effectiveness when they are supported by institutional safeguards. This review synthesizes fiscal federalism and institutional theory to elucidate varied outcomes and offers policymakers directions for formulating context-specific capacity-building reforms that are resilient to political capture.

Abstract

This study presents the first systematic comparative evaluation of eight forecasting models applied to Google Trends data specifically for Indonesian digital MSME product categories, addressing a critical gap in accessible demand prediction tools for resource-constrained enterprises. Employing quantitative comparative experimental design, we analyzed 18 product keywords from fashion and traditional food sectors with weekly temporal resolution (2020-2024), evaluated via 80/20 train-test split with MAPE. Exponential Smoothing achieved superior overall performance (20.33% MAPE), while Moving Average proved optimal for traditional food products (16.21% MAPE). Category-specific model selection enables MSMEs to anticipate demand peaks, time market entry windows, optimize inventory positioning ahead of seasonal cycles, and prioritize promotional spending, translating search trend signals directly into actionable penetration decisions. These findings provide an evidence-based, zero-cost framework for demand-informed market strategy, accessible to resource-constrained enterprises without specialized infrastructure or advanced technical expertise.

Abstract

Local resource-based food security plays a strategic role in supporting sustainable economic development, food independence, and the preservation of regional culture. This study analyzes local food purchasing intentions and decisions in East Nusa Tenggara (NTT) Province, with jagung bose as a representative of local food. The study used the Extended Theory of Planned Behavior (E-TPB) approach by adding factors such as price, product availability, and concern for local food. The study obtained data through purposive sampling of 240 respondents and analyzed them using Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS 3. The results show that attitudes, subjective norms, behavioral control, price, product availability, and concern for local food positively and significantly affect purchase intentions. Furthermore, purchase intentions positively and significantly affect purchase decisions. The findings emphasize the importance of integrating economic, social, and cultural factors in strengthening sustainable local food consumption.
