    IntroductionThe conventional wisdom of economic growth is at stake in the current debate of

    regional3 development. Over the half century from its first inception during Harry

    Trumansinaugural

    speech

    on

    January

    20,

    1949,

    the

    development

    projects

    have

    failed

    to

    meet their promises, instead they move to opposite direction: massive

    underdevelopmentand impoverishment,unfoldexploitation,andoppression[3,p.4].

    The achievement of high level economic growth does not necessarily resolve the

    fundamentalproblemsofpovertyandunequalincomedistribution[4,5].

    BarEla and Schwartz [5] reviews the burgeoning body of literatures on regional

    developmentandfindthateconomicgrowthoftenrequiresaconcentrationofstronger

    elementsof theeconomy, suchas: investments in regionswithbetter infrastructures

    andpopulationswithbettereducationand skills.Thissituation inevitably leads to the

    concentration in selected populations or regions of benefits from growth, which will

    then generates interpersonal and interregional disparities [5]. This framework of

    analysiscanbeusedtoexplainthedisparityphenomenainIndonesiadespiteofthehigh

    levelofeconomicgrowthachievement.

    AsIndonesiaenteredaneweraofdecentralizationin2000,therehavebeensignificant

    changes in interregional wealth distribution. Within this decentralization framework,

    more resources have been distributed to the regional governments. Theoretically

    speaking, this new situation gives leverage to regional governments tomanagemore

    resource for development. However, as shown by Islam [6], preliminary assessment

    indicates that the new fiscal decentralization framework exacerbates the prevailing

    spatial inequality. This situation calls for alternative approach for policy options to

    resolveissuesofinequalityintheeraofdecentralization.

    This paper proposes the rightsbased approach to development as an alternative

    frameworkfordevelopmentpolicy.Therightbasedapproachhastheleveragetofocus

    peoples attention on the issues of equity. It begins with the review of Indonesias

    developmentpolicy.Thesubsequentsectionwilllaysthefoundationoftherightbased

    studies using the humanright frameworks with reference of Surakarta and Bandung.

    The final section concludes the discussions and proposes implications and challenges

    planninganddevelopmentpracticesinIndonesia.

    IndonesiaRegionalDevelopmentPolicyRevisitedBefore the 1997 economic crisis, Indonesia was praised as one of the Asian Miracle,

    whichhadsuccessfullyachievedhighandsustainedeconomicgrowth[7].Togetherwith

    otherHighPerformingAsianEconomies, Indonesiahadbecomeamodel forrapidand

    propoor growth economy [8]. During this period, Indonesia attained remarkable

    economic and social achievement. According Dowling and ChinFang [9], Indonesia

    succeeded to transform the country from a poor country to a major producer of

    industrialproductsinSoutheastAsia.Bytheendofthe1990s,thepovertylevelfellfrom

    64.3%to11.4%;domesticinvestmentasashareofGDPincreasedfromlessthan10%in

    the1960stoover30%inthe1990s;andagriculturesshareofGDPfellfromover50%in

    the1960stolessthan20%by1997[9].

    Thesesuccessescanbetracedbacktothebeginning1967,whenSoehartosuccessfully

    overthrew the formerPresident Soekarno,and started hisNewOrder regime. In this

    period, Indonesiachanged thedirectionof itseconomicorientation from thepopulist

    economy as the legacy of the former regime toward a more pragmatic and market

    orientedeconomy[10].ChalmersandHadiz[10]furthers identifiesthethreephasesof

    Indonesiaseconomicdevelopmentfrom1967tothelate1990s,namely:theeconomic

    reconstructionperiod(1967mid1970s);the oilboomyearsera(19741982);andthe

    eraofeconomicstructuraladjustment(mid1980slate1990s).

    During theperiodofeconomic reconstruction in1967mid1970s,centralgovernment

    policiesfocusedonrestoringcountryseconomicactivitiesoncewerehaltedduringthe

    politicalandsocial turmoil.According toChalmersandHadiz [10], thisperiodwas the

    mostcriticalphaseforSoehartosNewOrderregimetoassert legitimacyofhispower.

    Therefore, restoring political and economic stability had become the main agenda of

    Soeharto. With the loyal military forces behind him, Soeharto had successfully

    eliminatedany

    political

    opponents

    and

    suppressed

    any

    views

    that

    might

    compromise

    During

    this

    the

    central

    government introduced the INPRES program whose purpose was to support the

    financial capacity of regional government [11]. This interregional equalization fund

    transfer policy coupled by strong control from central government had been able to

    maintainarelativelylowlevelofregionaldisparity[6,12].

    The third phase of economic development was during the massive downfall of

    GarciaGarcia and Soelistianingsih [15] find that prior to economic crisis in 1997,

    although the provincial income had increased significantly and provincial income

    disparity had decreased, the personal and regional disparities persist. Takeda and

    Nakata[16]sharethesamefindingwithGarciaGarciaandSoelistianingsih[15]thatthe

    decrease in provincial disparities of GDP per capita was contributed from the high

    economic growth at national level. Takeda and Nakata [16] further argue that the

    regional

    disparities

    was

    caused

    by

    provinces in West Indonesia region contributed substantially to the national GDP,

    accountingforabout80%bytheyearof1997.

    The economic crisis that hit Indonesia in 1997 had lead to political instability and

    economic uncertainty. This situation inevitably changed the course of regional

    development in Indonesia. The demise control of New Order regime following the

    resignationofSoehartofromthepresidencyputtheIndonesianunitarystatefragile.The

    threatsof

    national

    disintegration

    had

    created

    astrong

    demand

    toward

    decentralization

    ofeconomicdecisionmakingauthorityanddevolutionofpower to the regional levels

    [9]. From 2000, Indonesia embarked the most ambitious decentralization project

    amongalldevelopingcountries[18]throughthestipulationoftheLawNo.22/1999on

    Regional Autonomy and Law No. 25/1999 on Fiscal Balance between the Centre and

    Regions, which were then revised by the Law 32/2004 and Law No. 33/2004,

    respectively. These two laws provide wide discretionary powers for the regions and

    substantialfinancialandpersonnelresourcestoexercisethosepowers.

    The new policy framework of decentralization, including the fiscal decentralization,

    entails new formulation of interregional transfer. The new formula is designed to

    mediate issues of interregional imbalance [6, 19]. The new arrangement of fiscal

    equalization transfer comprises Revenues Sharing/Dana Bagi Hasil, Specific Purpose

    Grant/Dana Alokasi Khusus (DAK); and General Purpose Grant/Dana Alokasi Umum

    (DAU).

    DanaBagiHasil is funds sourced from thennational revenuebudget (APBN),which is

    allocatedtotheregionwithrespecttothepotentialownedbytheproducingregionsat

    certain level of percentage in order to finance local needs in the context of

    decentralization.DanaAlokasiKhususisbasicallyisanearmarkgrantthatisallocatedto

    specificregionsandforparticularprogramsbasedoncentralgovernmentprioritiesand

    commitments.DanaAlokasiUmum is a block grant particularly designed to equalize

    regional governments fiscal capacities to finance their expenditure needs. The DAU

    alone is amounted 25% (26% in 2006) of the net domestic revenues [19]. From that

    portion,10%ofthefundisallocatedforprovincialgovernments,andtherestisforthe

    municipalityanddistrictgovernments.

    The new fiscal decentralization arrangement has transferred substantial amount of

    financial resources to regional governments. It indicates a significant increase of

    resourcestransfer

    to

    the

    old

    regime

    Tadjoeddin

    et

    [12]

    and

    Islam

    [6]

    have

    advanced improvement proposals for regional fiscal equalization policies with the

    specific emphasis on realizing social accord. Soeharto [20] offers criteria of poverty

    measurementusing the rightbased orientation. Such criteria can alsobeused in the

    formulaofregionalfiscalequalization.Therestofthepaperwillfocusonhowtherights

    TheRightBasedApproach

    BasicConceptsandTheoreticalUnderpinnings

    The rightsbased approach (RBA) emerges as an alternative approach to respond the

    conventional approach to development that is mainly influenced by the neoclassical

    viewofeconomicdevelopment.Indonesiasexperiencehasshownthatthehighlevelof

    economicgrowth isnotnecessarily followedby the incomeequality [15].Timmer [8]

    callsformoreactivestateroleinordertorealizeamorepropoorgrowth.

    The Human Development Report 2000, states that human rights are not, as has

    sometimesbeenargued,arewardofdevelopment.Rather,theyarecriticaltoachieving

    it.[21,p.iii].

    This

    statement

    implies

    that

    is subject to the compliance toallhuman rightsprinciples.Gready [22] identifies two

    tobringcases tocourt inordertosecureeconomicandsocial rights [22].Thesecond

    valueadded is that theapproach thrives to repoliticedevelopmentactions inat least

    four ways. It redefines development work as rightbased rather than benevolence or

    charity; reclaims thekeyprocessofdevelopment;aims toaddress rootand structural

    causesofpovertyandconflict;andspeaksthetruthaboutpower[22].

    significant role in urban economy. Using Perda No. 11/2005 tentang Ketertiban,

    The government assigned seven streetvendorfree zones covering areas inAlunalun

    concern that Bandung society is virtually not benefitting from the presence of street

    vendors and only receives negative excesses [43]. This is due to the fact that the

    majorityofstreetvendorscomefromoutsideBandung.

    Discussion

    Thediscussionof the twocaseswillbe focusedon threeaspects.First, itwill identify

    whathuman rightsare involvedandpossibleviolations. Itwillevaluate thedegreeof

    governments obligations are fulfilled. It will also examine how development policy

    actions contribute to promoting equity within the context or regional or urban

    development.

    The covenant usually only provides a broad definition of the respective rights. The

    specific interpretation may be referred to relevant General Comment. The available

    relevantgeneral comment for the rights toworks (Artivel6of ICESCR) is theGeneral

    CommentNo.18/24November2005.However the contentsof thegeneral comment

    theprincipal factor lays in thegovernmentsphilosophywhendealingwith thepublic

    philosophy that emphasis a more humane approach toward others and recognizes

    the people [36].Theapproach takenby SurakartaMunicipality government coincides

    withtheprinciplesofhumanrights.

    Incontrast totheSurakartacase, theBandungMunicipalitygovernment takesamore

    negative attitude towards street vendors. Even more, the government is found

    ambiguouswhendealingwith the streetvendors. Informal streetvendingactivities in

    Bandungisconsideredasrevenuecontributorbutalsoastheproblemforthecity[40].

    Such ambiguities lead to unclear approach of government to resolve streetvending

    issues.Thissituation isalsoexacerbatedbytheactionsofthestreetbureaucrats,who

    exploit the street vendors by demanding unofficial contribution for personal benefit

    [39].

    Equity

    Some scholars have proposed strategies to extend equity accompanying economic

    growth.Timmer[8],withhisproposalforpropoorgrowth,advancesstrategytoextend

    equity by improving the capabilities of the poor, lowering transactions costs in the

    economy,especiallybetweenruralandurbanareas,and increasingdemand forgoods

    sector economy is one important innovative policy option based on a number of

    reasons.

    First, the informal sector economy constitutes a substantial portion of labor market,

    accounting 63.8% in 2005, 64.3% in 2006, and 65.4% in 2007 [39]. Therefore,

    strengtheningtheinformalsectorsparticularlyinurbanareaswilleventuallycontributes

    There are also some implications induced by the rightsbased approach to planning

    practices.First,itrequiresplannerstoseekinnovativesolutionbeyondtheconventional

    waystoaddressurbanandregionalproblems.Thetwocasesillustratethatplannersare

    expected to seek innovative solutionbeyond the conventional view toaddressurban

    andregional

    problems.

    As

    the

    case

    of

    informal

    street

    vendor

    activities,

    planners

    should

    see that theseactivitiesarepartof theurban lifeand thereforeneedequalattention

    withthefocusofotherissues,for instanceonhowtodevelopgrowthcentersinurban

    andregionalareas.

    The approach also requires the planners to recognize the implications that may be

    createdbythedevelopmentpolicyproposalsonanyindividualsrights.Asetofpolicies

    thataredesigned for thebenefitof thewhole society,mayviolate individuals rights.

    Thecaseof the roadblockadingbyathousandofclerics inCirebontoprotestthetoll
