Download or read book What Happened to Child Labor in Indonesia During the Economic Crisis written by Agus Priyambada and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although lower than other developing countries at a similar stage of development, the problem of child labour in Indonesia is significant. Child labour perpetuates poverty. The link between current child labour and future poverty appears to be a lack of adequate and appropriate education. Children who spend a significant amount of their time working have less opportunity to obtain a proper education. This reduces their ability to get a good job as an adult and climb out of poverty. Furthermore, it is likely that their children will also have to work because of poverty. This study aims to assess the link between poverty, school, and work for children in Indonesia.

Download or read book Fostering Resilience through Micro Small and Medium Enterprises written by Tulus T.H. Tambunan and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-03-30 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the development of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Indonesia based on various primary and secondary field surveys. In doing so, the book provides a regional comparison of countries in Asia- Pacific, covering issues such as employment generation, formation of gross domestic product (GDP), export development, development constraints, productivity, and investment. To achieve this, the book analyzes the role of partnerships between MSMEs such as large companies, banks and government institutions, and the role of cooperatives. It also includes studies on women’s entrepreneurship in Indonesia, and also explores the crisis mitigating measures (CMMs) widely adopted by MSMEs affected by financial crises in the past. Finally, the book also examines the development of financial technology (FinTech), and in particular peer-to-peer (P2P) lending and how this can serve as an alternative source of funding for MSMEs in Indonesia. Aspects of this book would be useful to students, researchers, practitioners, and also those interested in economic-related sustainable development goals (SDGs), given the importance the United Nations (UN) has assigned to MSMEs for taking a lead in employment creation, and poverty eradication.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: School attendance in Indonesia dropped slightly after the onset of the Asian crisis but then rebounded to higher-than-pre-crisis levels. Fewer children are now working, although the older children who are working and are not attending school seem to be working longer hours. Children's health status appears to be relatively stable.Cameron examines the Asian crisis's impact on children in 100 Indonesian villages, based on data from four rounds of the 100 Villages survey that was used to examine changes in health status, school attendance rates, and children's participation in the labor force.She finds little evidence that the crisis had a dramatically negative impact on children. School attendance dropped slightly after the onset of the crisis but then rebounded to higher-than-pre-crisis levels. Fewer children are now working, although the older children who are working and are not attending school seem to be working longer hours.Children's health status appears to be relatively stable, although comparisons of indicators of children's health status over time are complicated by changes in the questionnaire used.Cameron also examines ways households reported they were coping with the crisis.This paper - a product of the Poverty Team, Development Research Group - is part of a larger effort in the group to study the welfare impact of the East Asian crisis.

Download or read book Globalization and Child Labor written by and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book investigates the effects of globalization on child labor from a theoretical and empirical perspective, focusing more strongly on the empirical evidence. From the multitude of aspects of globalization, the book concentrates on the effects propagated through the channel of goods trade. Trade liberalization affects child labor outcomes primarily through shifting goods and factor prices. In a developing country, these price changes can increase the demand for unskilled labor, but at the same time they can be expected to raise the income of the poor; the resulting income and substitution effects will also affect household decisions on child labor supply. After presenting the regulatory environment and an overview of the main factors leading to child labor, the book addresses supply side determinants by emphasizing the gender-specific differences in the trade-off between different forms of work and schooling (based on North Indian evidence). The subsequent analysis of the determinants of child labor in Indonesian small scale manufacturing explores the interplay of supply and demand side factors by addressing explicitly firm location decisions, and hence the demand for child labor. It demonstrates that increases in economic activity, although beneficial per se, can also raise the demand for child labor. The theoretical analysis on the effects of trade liberalization on child labor supply emphasizes the role of relative price changes and poverty. It argues that the redistributive effects of more open trade are reducing child labor incidence, but potentially not in the poorest countries; the presented empirical analysis (based on a country panel) supports this claim. The last part of the book addresses the causal effects of trade liberalization on regional child labor and schooling outcomes in Indonesia over the time-span of 1993-2002. It finds that child labor reduced significantly more in those Indonesian regions that were more strongly exposed to trade liberaliz.

Download or read book The Child and the State in India written by Myron Weiner and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-02-09 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India has the largest number of non-schoolgoing working children in the world. Why has the government not removed them from the labor force and required that they attend school, as have the governments of all developed and many developing countries? To answer this question, this major comparative study first looks at why and when other states have intervened to protect children against parents and employers. By examining Europe of the nineteenth century, the United States, Japan, and a number of developing countries, Myron Weiner rejects the argument that children were removed from the labor force only when the incomes of the poor rose and employers needed a more skilled labor force. Turning to India, the author shows that its policies arise from fundamental beliefs, embedded in the culture, rather than from economic conditions. Identifying the specific values that elsewhere led educators, social activists, religious leaders, trade unionists, military officers, and government bureaucrats to make education compulsory and to end child labor, he explains why similar groups in India do not play the same role.
