RENT-SEEKING TOWARDS ECONOMIC GROWTH: EMPIRICAL STUDY IN LOWER-MIDDLE-INCOME COUNTRIES

The good effects of globalization are not felt by all countries. Lower-middle-income countries are constrained by ineffective or poorly implemented economic policies in those countries. One indicator of this ineffectiveness is the low rate of controlling rent-seeking in lower-middle-income countries. Therefore, this study analyzes the effect of controlling rent-seeking on the economic growth of lower-middle-income countries. It is important to study where economic growth has an important role in the economic development of lower-middle-income countries. This study also uses control variables such as capital formation, population, and lag of economic growth through the Partial Adjustment Model (PAM) approach. Based on the results of regression testing that has been carried out, controlling rent seeking and capital formation is known to have a positive and significant effect on economic growth in lower-middle-income countries. Meanwhile population has a negative and significant effect on the economic growth of lower-middle-income countries

ANALISIS PENGARUH UPAH, PERTUMBUHAN EKONOMI, DAN PEMBANGUNAN MANUSIA TERHADAP PENGANGGURAN

Unemployment that has occurred puts Indonesia at the top of the movements in the five ASEAN countries. In addition, the level of minimum wages is still an obstacle in accommodating the welfare of job seekers and maximizing human development which can still reduce the large number of workers in Indonesia. The purpose of this study is to see how the real conditions of the movement in Indonesia and the relationship between wages, the economy and human development can affect growth in Indonesia. This research used panel data regression analysis in the period 2011-2020 with 34 in Indonesia. The negative results indicate that the minimum wage and economic growth have an effect and are significant in reducing these elements. Meanwhile, human development has no significant effect in reducing the levels of movement. Setting minimum prices at a certain level and encouraging economic growth can be the answer in overcoming these problems. In human development, the investments made by the new government will have a real impact in the long term. Keyword : wage, economic growth, HDI, unemploymen
