The Role of Fiscal Decentralization in Enhancing Regional Financial Independence in Indonesia

Tuti Dharmawati, Wa Ode Muhardiana, Wa Ode Aprisilia Z.A
Abstract: This study aims to analyze the role of fiscal decentralization in enhancing regional financial independence in Indonesia. Using a qualitative approach and literature review methodology, the research examines the role of… fiscal decentralization in promoting regional financial autonomy in Indonesia. The analysis compares the effectiveness of fiscal decentralization policies in fostering financial independence across various regions in the country. Fiscal decentralization has demonstrated positive impacts by granting regions greater freedom to determine development priorities and explore funding sources. Regions with strong economic potential and natural resources can increase their locally generated revenue (Pendapatan Asli Daerah or PAD) to support development. However, this policy also creates disparities among regions, where wealthier regions manage their finances independently while poorer regions remain reliant on central government transfers. Moreover, limited managerial capacity in some regions hampers the policy's effectiveness. Fiscal decentralization can strengthen regional financial independence if accompanied by enhanced financial management capacity and fiscal policy adjustments.

M. Khafis, Bayyina Tulaila, Deah Irena, Ashwatun Hasanah, Budi Ardianto
Abstract: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis dampak penggunaan hak veto oleh negara-negara anggota tetap Dewan Keamanan Perserikatan Bangsa-Bangsa (PBB), dengan fokus khusus pada peran Amerika Serikat, dalam upaya penyelesaian… saian konflik Palestina-Israel. Hak veto sering kali digunakan oleh Amerika Serikat untuk memblokir resolusi yang mendukung Palestina dan menguntungkan Israel. Dampak dari penggunaan hak veto ini sangat signifikan, termasuk kesulitan yang dihadapi oleh   Palestina dalam memperjuangkan hak-haknya di forum internasional, pengurangan legitimasi internasional terhadap perjuangan Palestina, serta pengkhianatan terhadap aspirasi bersama untuk mencapai perdamaian di Timur Tengah. Selain itu, penggunaan hak veto juga menggugurkan suara negara-negara lain yang mendukung Palestina, sehingga menghambat proses diplomasi dan resolusi konflik yang adil. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode studi pustaka untuk mengumpulkan dan menganalisis data terkait dampak penggunaan hak veto pada resolusi Dewan Keamanan PBB yang berkaitan dengan Palestina. Hasil penelitian ini diharapkan dapat memberikan pemahaman yang lebih mendalam tentang dinamika politik internasional dan peran hak veto dalam konflik Palestina-Israel.
