| Summary/Abstract |
The first decade of the 21st century has been characterised by complex and interrelated changes that have affected development. Development studies as a discipline has traditionally been concerned with the impact of colonisation and neocolonialism, and with neoliberal-related growth models. This paper argues that, since around the turn of the century, there has been a major shift in development, driven by a series of fundamental changes, including the relative failure of the neoliberal project in the 1980s and 1990s, which by the 2000s was partly replaced by a greater concern with addressing security issues with aid; the rise of China and other middle-income countries as large resource providers for development; and the rapid increase of remittance flows to lower and middle income countries. The paper looks at how both development studies and aid policy in Australia and elsewhere have been relatively slow to engage with this rapidly changing context. The big challenges for development studies will be: engaging with developing countries as development donors with different agendas for development; the decline of much of the current neoliberal paradigm; alternative sources of development finance; and the securitisation of Western aid.

| Summary/Abstract |
In recent years, some Western media are so anxious to play up neocolonialism and bluntly label China neocolonialist.They are not only factually mistaken, but also logically misleading. The fact is that China's practice in Africa, which is based on equality, mutual benefit and reciprocity, is fundamentally different from that of the Western colonialists. Meanwhile, some Western media outlets are skillfully misleading the public by substituting the fake for the genuine, taking a part from the whole and employing double standards.An individual enterprise's behavior cannot represent a government's African policy and any country cannot guarantee all its enterprises perform as well as expected in Africa. Some Western media have turned a blind eye to the serious environmental destruction caused by Western giants' oil production in Africa. While for China, these media put the propaganda machine into high gear to exaggerate individual problems in Sino-African cooperation and groundlessly accuse the Chinese government for the responsibility of some Chinese enterprises' problems in Africa and even problems facing Africa in international cooperation.They seek to smear China's image and contain Sino-African cooperation. The accusation of neocolonialism is an extension of the West's intention to contain China.

| Summary/Abstract |
This article examines processes of knowledge production around mass violence in 1970s Cambodia including media reportage and coeval scholarly debate, developing a conceptualisation of colonial abridgment. It assesses operations by which Cambodia as a country is violently essentialised, the occurrence of mass violence taking on metonymic grandeur that works to deny imperial legacies, entomb modern Cambodia in a hermetically sealed past and thereby maintain global order within existing racial-colonial logics.

| Summary/Abstract |
IN AFRICA, France is guided by its economic interests and, to a certain extent, political considerations rooted in traditions, social relationships, issues of French influence, and its national pride. From the first days of his presidency, Emmanuel Macron, the eighth president of the Fifth Republic, has been talking about changing his country's African policy to a "soft power" of sorts. Nobody, neither the Élysée Palace, nor capitals of Francophone African countries nor other external actors with interests of their own on the continent have so far answered whether this can be done at all.

| Summary/Abstract |
Over 50 years after 1960’s ‘Year of Africa’, most of Francophone Africa continues to be embedded in a set of associations that fit very well with Kwame Nkrumah’s description of neocolonialism, where postcolonial states are de jure independent but in reality constrained through their economic systems so that policy is directed from outside. This article scrutinises the functioning of the Communauté Financière Africaine (CFA), considering the role the currency has in persistent underdevelopment in most of Francophone Africa. In doing so, the article identifies the CFA as the most blatant example of functioning neocolonialism in Africa today and a critical device that promotes dependency in large parts of the continent. Mainstream analyses of the technical aspects of the CFA have generally focused on the exchange rate and other related matters. However, while important, the real importance of the CFA franc should not be seen as purely economic, but also political.

| Summary/Abstract |
US foreign policy on AIDS assistance in Africa has gone through many shifts in resource investment and focus, reflecting the politics of the culture war in the United States. Because AIDS cannot be addressed without consideration of sexuality, these shifts have resulted in very different sets of recommendations in African countries on sexual behavior and values. Because they are dependent on the United States for material and technological resources, African countries have been incorporated into this cultural debate as a form of sexual and cultural neocolonialism.
