Abstract
As East Java’s economic landscape evolves, understanding the drivers and consequences of industrialization in specific regions becomes crucial. This article delves into the industrialization process in Paciran District, Lamongan Regency, East Java, Indonesia. It aims to elucidate the motivations behind the establishment of industrial estates, detail their developmental trajectory, and assess their socio-economic and environmental repercussions. Utilizing a historical method and drawing on both primary and secondary sources, the study reveals that the Lamongan government’s policy to industrialize Paciran District aimed to bolster the regional economy and create employment opportunities beyond the agricultural sector. Paciran District was chosen due to its abundant natural and human resources, which supported the development of industries such as manufacturing, fish processing, and offshore facilities. Industrialization in Paciran District has significantly influenced socio-economic conditions of the area by generating jobs, particularly in trade and industry. However, it has also led to cultural shifts, weakening social cohesion, and increasing the prevalence of Koplo pill usage. Environmentally, industrialization has resulted in deteriorating air quality, damage to coastal ecosystems, and water pollution.
