Summary/Abstract: This study tries to disentangle whether governance and fiscal decentralization in Indonesia improves economic growth in the period 1984 – 2014. Also, it investigates whether there is a causality in the growth-governance-fiscal decentralization nexus in Indonesia. The results run by OLS (Ordinary Least Square) and VECM (Vector Error Correction Model) provide different intrepretation. However, one could argue that VECM can best describe the relationship between growth and governance as well fiscal decentralization both in short and long run since simple OLS are useful when all variables are stationary at level.
