Abstract

This paper reviews the policies on child poverty eradication in Indonesia. The review covers the definition of child poverty in Indonesian policy and regulation as well as government policies to eradicate child poverty. Based on the review, this paper argues that it is important to reconsider how children and child poverty are defined conceptually, as well as how that understanding influences the definition and measures of child poverty. Regulations and people's views define children and poverty in various ways. Furthermore, the effectiveness of poverty reduction strategies to eradicate child poverty should be contested because of mismatches between concept, regulations, strategies, interventions, and measures of child poverty.

印度尼西亚消除儿童贫困的政策：对儿童和贫困达成共识的重要性

本文回顾了印度尼西亚消除儿童贫困的政策。回顾内容包括印尼政策法规中对儿童贫困的定义以及政府消除儿童贫困的政策。根据综述，本文认为必须重新考虑如何从概念上定义儿童和儿童贫困，以及这种理解如何影响儿童贫困的定义和衡量标准。法规和人们的观点以不同的方式定义了儿童和贫困。此外，由于儿童贫困的概念、法规、战略、干预措施和衡量标准之间的不匹配，消除儿童贫困的减贫战略的有效性应该受到质疑。

期刊介绍： Poverty is worldwide, but empirical studies of poverty, income distribution, and low-income aid programs for citizens have thus far been more common in America, Canada, Australia, and the major industrial nations of Europe. American and Canadian studies of poverty, income issues, and social welfare programs have, to an extent, been insular in scope. Poverty & Public Policy (PPP) is a global journal. In much of the world, including Central and South America, Africa, the Middle East and much of Asia, there are important studies of poverty, income and aid programs; little has been integrated into the scholarly literature, however, which is an oversight this journal aims to correct. Poverty & Public Policy publishes quality research on poverty, income distribution, and welfare programs from scholars around the globe. PPP is eclectic, publishing peer-reviewed empirical studies, peer-reviewed theoretical essays on approaches to poverty and social welfare, book reviews, data sets, edited blogs, and incipient data from scholars, aid workers and other hands-on officials in less developed nations and nations that are just beginning to focus on these problems in a scientific fashion.
