Come watch a presentation by Dr. Andi Irawan who earned his PhD program at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) in Urban Studies.His dissertation assesses spatial inequality and convergence dynamics across districts in East Java and studies the impact of Indonesia’s 2001 fiscal decentralization on regional income disparities across these districts.  East Java was chosen as a case study because of its economical and geopolitical importance to Indonesia. In addition, East Java has been dubbed a case of ‘balanced development’, an assessment that this dissertation intends to re-examine.
