During this period, the academic and political understandings of development consolidated and informed Australian attempts to provide economic assistance to the poorer regions to its north. Development was central to the Australian colonial administration of PNG, as well as its Colombo Plan aid in Asia. In addition to examining Australia's perception of international development, this book also demonstrates how these debates and policies informed Australia's understanding of its own development. This manifested itself most clearly in Australia's behavior at the 1964 United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD). The book concludes with a discussion of development and Australian foreign aid in the decade leading up to Papua New Guinea's independence, achieved in 1975. 410 0$aSecurity, Conflict and Cooperation in the Contemporary World,$x2731-6815 606 $aAustralasia 606 $aHistory 606 $aWorld politics 606 $aEconomic development 606 $aImperialism 606 $aAustralian History 606 $aPolitical History 606 $aDevelopment Studies 606 $aImperialism and Colonialism 615 0$aAustralasia. 615 0$aHistory. 615 0$aWorld politics. 615 0$aEconomic development. 615 0$aImperialism. 615 14$aAustralian History. 615 24$aPolitical History. 615 24$aDevelopment Studies. 615 24$aImperialism and Colonialism. 676 $a330.9953 676 $a900 700 $aFerns$b Nicholas$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0894273 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910416093303321 996 $aAustralia in the Age of International Development, 1945-1975$94330160 997 $aUNINA
