Mubyarto (3 September 1938 – 24 May 2005) was an Indonesian economist. He was born in Sleman, in Yogyakarta, and became a professor of economics at Gadjah Mada University in Yogyakarta specialising in agricultural economics. He frequently wrote and spoke about challenges of agricultural development in Indonesia.[1] Later in his career he became known for his interest in Pancasila economics and ekonomi rakyat (people's economics).[2][3]
Early career[edit]
Mubyarto grew up in the town of Yogyakarta. He first studied economics as a student in the Economics Faculty (Fakultas Ekonomi) at Gadjah Mada University and he was appointed as a promising junior lecturer on graduation in 1959.
Mubyarto pursued his graduate work in the United States, first earning a Master of Arts degree from Vanderbilt University in 1962.[4] His interest in rural development gained rigour throughout his PhD program at Iowa State University where his doctoral dissertation was a study of the issue of The Elasticity of the Marketable Surplus of Rice in Indonesia.[5][6]
Work in Indonesia[edit]
Upon completing his PhD in the United States in 1965, Mubyarto returned to take up a post at Gadjah Mada University. At the time, economic conditions in Indonesia were very difficult and the province of Yogyakarta (the Special Region of Yogyakarta, or Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta) was one of the poorest areas of Indonesia.[7]
Through most of his career he regularly pointed out the issue of poverty.[8][9] Related to the concern about poverty was the price of rice and its effect upon the community.[10]
Later in his career at Gadjah Mada University, he attained the status of professor.[11]
