“…In Brazil, the greatest impact of broadband penetration on productivity occurs in less developed regions (Jung & López-Bazo, 2017). Slightly different results were presented by Aslam et al (2021). They conducted research at the country level and showed that digital inclusion only had a significant impact on the inclusive growth of high-income countries.…”

Technology utilization is often considered one of the main drivers promoting inclusive development. As a form of technology utilization, whether using the internet can promote inclusive development has been a concern for researchers and policymakers. Considering geographical connectivity characteristics, we examine the effects of internet penetration on inclusive development by applying spatial econometric models and using data from 34 provinces in Indonesia from 2015 to 2020. This study reveals that encouraging the internet penetration can significantly improves the inclusive development in a province. However, the increase of internet penetration leads to the decrease of inclusive development in neighboring provinces. The digital divide among provinces in Indonesia can be attributed to this phenomenon. This study also indicates a strong positive spatial correlation of inclusive development. Our findings point to the need for policies to promote people's use of the internet to achieve more benefits from development, balance the digital development to reduce the harmful effects of the digital divide, and consider the spatial aspects when making policies to promote inclusive development.

The aim of this paper is to conceptualize the theoretical quadruple helix model in the field of digital inclusion. It explores the literature on digital inclusion issues, stakeholder’s roles and investigates the main features of the quadruple helix model and its application possibilities in the digital inclusion context. Building on the findings of this literature review, the theoretical quadruple helix model for digital inclusion is proposed. This paper contributes to the literature on digital inclusion and lays a conceptual basis for further theoretical and empirical research in this field.

“…Felder (2018) explains that the most crucial aspect of inclusion is freedom: the ability of individuals to set and exert towards goals, granted social acceptance and security whereas Wang and Naveed (2019) define social inclusion as a process of achieving equality. Aslam et al (2020) argue that social inclusion along with institutional quality and digital inclusion leads to inclusive growth.…”

Many in the developing world face social exclusion and discrimination, preventing them from actively participating in society itself. Sound macroeconomic policies with a focus on stabilizing the price level and social outcomes can help to achieve social justice for marginalized people. This study empirically examines the impact of macroeconomic policies on social inclusion, considering specifically the coordination among them in promoting that social inclusion. It deals primarily with pure non-income dimensions of social inclusion such as education, and health, etc. Using annual panel data of 51 developing countries for the period 1995-2017 this study employs state-of-the-art panel data estimation methods – pooled estimation, fixed-effect, and random-effect models. To check for robustness and to handle the problem of endogeneity, the 2SLS technique has also been used. This study argues that a well-designed macroeconomic policy framework can do much more than just achieve economic goals. Results suggest that fiscal and monetary policy, through resource mobilization, can play a significant and positive role in promoting social inclusion. However, these fiscal and monetary policy actions are not independent; thus, a policy mix is required to achieve the target of an inclusive society.
