Abstract

An increasing of regional data availability has revived of scholars’ interest in regional economic growth and disparities. The main reason for this revival came from attempts to improve the predictive ability of neoclassical model of growth. The objectives of this paper are to examine per capita gross regional product growth disparities, to check the existence of sigma and beta convergence across Indonesian provinces and to identify the underlying factors that affect per capita gross regional product growth. This is a quantitative study, and by making use of Coefficient of Variation and the Neoclassical Growth Model we found that The per capita gross regional product growth disparities tend to increase in the period of study, however, the existence of conditional beta convergence also implies. The underlying factors that are identified affect real per capita GRP growth are export, Foreign Direct Investment, Inflation and government expenditure.

Summary

Introduction

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has been receiving increasing attention since its inception in the 1950s. The process of education involves learning that focus on the values, attitudes, and behaviours which enable individuals to learn to live together in a world characterised by diversity and pluralism. This indicates that education and academicians have a novel role to play in shaping and changing the future generation as well as the society. The research paper undertakes to study the indirect effect of Internal CSR practices between PRESOR and Employee Engagement in the education context. The findings of this research would add values to the body of knowledge in the context of the role of ethics and social responsibility together with Internal CSR practices among academicians in the education setting. This research paper is organised into seven sections with the first section purveying the background of the study, followed by the literature review, research framework, research methodology, data analysis, findings, and discussions; and end with limitations and future research
