Analysis of Income Convergence Between Districts/Cities in South Sulawesi Province

This study analyses convergence in income inequality among districts/municipalities in South Sulawesi. The method used is quantitative analysis with panel data regression involving 24 districts/cities. The results show that there is no sigma convergence. However, beta convergence is identified with an initial GRDP per capita regression coefficient of 0.461231. This study concludes that although income inequality still exists, there are indications of convergence influenced by certain factors such as government expenditure (Gi) and the Human Development Index (HDI).

Abstract

This study analyses convergence in income inequality among districts/municipalities in South Sulawesi. The method used is quantitative analysis with panel data regression involving 24 districts/cities. The results show that there is no sigma convergence. However, beta convergence is identified with an initial GRDP per capita regression coefficient of 0.461231. This study concludes that although income inequality still exists, there are indications of convergence influenced by certain factors such as government expenditure (Gi) and the Human Development Index (HDI).
