Summary

Introduction

The study of decentralization is still growing because many scientists still do not agree on the meaning of decentralization and how to measure decentralization. There are three things that become the benchmark, namely finance, administration, and politics.. Symmetrical decentralization is based on the assumption that all provinces have the same conditions and circumstances. 3 In principle, asymmetric decentralization is a way of thinking that emphasizes the need to pay attention to differences between regions and the uniqueness of each region, as well as the objective interests of Indonesia as a nation and state. The use of the concept of asymmetric decentralization is needed to manage all local diversity, whether reflected in aspects of historical background, culture, economic potential, administrative capacity to certain political demands.. There are two main reasons for implementing asymmetric decentralization, namely asymmetry based on political considerations and administrative needs..
