AGE-STRUCTURAL TRANSITION IN INDONESIA

CICRED’S SEMINAR Age structural transition in Botswana in the context of HIV/AIDS

High-resolution record of the Matuyama-Brunhes transition constrains the age of Javanese Homo erectus in the Sangiran dome, Indonesia.

A detailed paleomagnetic study conducted in the Sangiran area, Java, has provided a reliable age constraint on hominid fossil-bearing formations. A reverse-to-normal polarity transition marks a 7-m thick section across the Upper Tuff in the Bapang Formation. The transition has three short reversal episodes and is overlain by a thick normal polarity magnetozone that was fission-track dated to th...

Structural Transition in Random Mappings

In this paper we characterise the structural transition in random mappings with in-degree restrictions. Specifically, for integers 0 6 r 6 n, we consider a random mapping model T̂ r n from [n] = {1, 2, . . . , n} into [n] such that Ĝn, the directed graph on n labelled vertices which represents the mapping T̂ r n , has r vertices that are constrained to have in-degree at most 1 and the remaining v...

Benchmarking Structural Change in Transition *

The transition to market-based economic systems in the countries of Central and Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union involves fundamental shifts in the allocation of resources and deep changes in the structure of production and employment. This paper uses a simple model of economic development and structural change with technology spillovers to benchmark structural change in the transitio...

The Effect of Fiscal Policy in Indonesia: Structural VAR Analysis

This paper is an attempt to investigate the effect of fiscal policy on output in Indonesia using Structural Vector Autoregression (SVAR) methodology for the period 1983:1 – 2010:1. We use contemporaneous restriction and follow Blanchard and Perotti (1999) technique to identify structural fiscal policy shocks in Indonesia. The estimation results show that the government spending shocks are found...
