Imperialism has been the most powerful force in world history over last four or five centuries. The world has moved from the colonial to post-colonial era or neoimperialism. Throughout the period, the imperialists have changed their grounds and strategies in imperialistic rules. But the ultimate objective has remained the same- to rule and exploit the natives with their multifaceted dominance-technological, economic and military. Through dominance with these, they have been, to a great extent, successful in establishing their racial and cultural superiority. George Orwell is popularly known to be an anti-imperialist writer. This paper, I believe, will lead us to an almost different conclusion. Here, we discover the inevitable dilemma in a disguised imperialist. We discover the seeds of imperialism under the mask of anti-imperialism. In this regard, it studies his revealing short story "Shooting an Elephant". It also humbly approaches to refute Barry Hindess' arguments supporting neoimperialism.   doi: 10.3329/iiucs.v3i0.2664   IIUC STUDIES Vol. - 3, December 2006 (p 5-62)

Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a new type of disease that has never been identified in humans. Severe cases of COVID-19 can cause acute respiratory syndrome, kidney failure, and even death. COVID-19 cases have spread all over the world, including in Indonesia. One province with a high number of COVID-19 cases is Central Java Province. Therefore, it is necessary to cluster districts or cities in Central Java based on the COVID-19 case to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Clustering the cases of COVID-19 is done using k-means clustering which is a method of clustering a number of data by means of partitions. The results show that cluster 2 and cluster 3 are areas that the government should pay more attention to because they are areas with a high number of active cases and the high death cases of COVID-19 in Central Java.

Abstract: One of the many impediments to a specific region, country and/or continents political, social and economic growth prospects is corruption, the aim of this paper is to unearth the drivers and consequences of corruption in post-colonial Africa. Corruption is a global phenomenon; however when observing global corruption statistics and/or trends, it seems to be more prominent in underdeveloped continents such as Africa. Corruption in Africa is purely driven by low levels of economic growth, bad governance structures weak constitutions political instability, high levels of poverty coupled with high and ever-increasing levels of unemployment. We argue that post the colonial era, there has been a rise of corruption activities within the continent where individuals including some African heads of states have looted the continent of its resources meant for the general populace. In this sense, corruption takes resources meant for the poor, limits foreign direct investments (FDI) and has severe effects on a continent that is already the least developed in the world.

The elimination of malaria in the world is targeted in 2030. Java and Bali are targeted to get malaria elimination certification in 2023. The area in the Menoreh Hills, which is the border of 3 districts and two provinces, namely Magelang district and Purworejo district in Central Java Province; and Kulonprogo district, in Special Province of Yogyakarta. Magelang district has obtained a certificate of malaria elimination. This study uses a qualitative design with in-depth interviews with 4-6 informants in each district consisting of officers in the District Health Service, Public Health Center, District Planning and Development Agency, and People Welfare Unit in regional government. The activity was carried out from March 2018 to May 2019. The districts in the Menoreh Hills area have collaborated and held cross-regional meetings to eliminate malaria. Even though it had a different problem in human resources, funds, infrastructure, in general,  cross-program has a role in the form of cooperation in activities that carried out together. The cross-sectoral involvement has not been seen much at the meeting, consolidation, and planning. Communities from three locations play a role in environmental cleanliness and migration surveillance.  In the past, Magelang district has been active in collaborating cross-program and sectors as well as community participation compared to Kulonprogo and Purworejo districts, so that Magelang district can obtain a malaria elimination certificate first. However, currently, Kulonprogo and Purworejo districts have been active in collaborating cross-program and sectors, while in Magelang district are now weakening. The community already has awareness in the implementation of malaria migration surveillance. The community already has awareness in the implementation of malaria migration surveillance. Abstrak Eliminasi malaria di dunia ditargetkan pada tahun 2030. Jawa dan Bali ditargetkan mendapat sertifikasi eliminasi malaria pada tahun 2023. Kawasan Bukit Menoreh merupakan perbatasan dari 3 wilayah kabupaten dan 2 provinsi yaitu Magelang, Purworejo Provinsi Jawa Tengah dan Kabupaten Kulonprogo Provinsi Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta. Saat ini,  Kabupaten Magelang telah memperoleh sertifikat eliminasi malaria. Penelitian ini bertujuan menilai/menentukan status kemitraan/kerjasama, lintas program, lintas sektor dan peran serta masyarakat dalam eliminasi malaria. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain kualitatif dengan metode wawancara mendalam kepada  4-6 informan pada setiap kabupaten yang terdiri dari petugas di dinas kesehatan kabupaten, puskesmas, Badan Perencanaan dan Pembangunan Daerah (Bappeda), serta pemerintah daerah bagian kesejahteraan rakyat (Kesra). Kegiatan dilakukan pada bulan Maret 2018-Mei 2019. Kabupaten di Kawasan Bukit Menoreh telah melakukan kerjasama dan pertemuan lintas wilayah dalam menanggulangi malaria. Meskipun mempunyai kendala yang berbeda-beda dari segi SDM, dana, sarana pra sarana, secara umum peran lintas program berupa kerjasama dalam pelaksanaan kegiatan yang dilaksanakan bersama-sama. Lintas sektor yang terlibat belum banyak yang terlihat pada pertemuan, konsolidasi, dan perencanaan. Masyarakat dari ketiga lokasi berperan dalam kebersihan lingkungan, surveilans migrasi. Magelang lebih dahulu aktif melakukan kerjasama lintas program dan lintas sektor serta peran serta masyarakat dibandingkan Kulonprogo dan Purworejo sehingga dapat lebih dahulu memperoleh sertifikat eliminasi malaria. Saat ini kegiatan kerjasama lintas program dan sektor di kabupaten Magelang melemah. Sedangkan, Kulonprogo dan Purworejo telah aktif melakukan kerjasama lintas program dan lintas sektor serta peran serta masyarakat.

At the Mexico City Olympics, Kenya won eight medals in athletics. This performance enabled this State, whose independence dated back just four years, to display its identity to the eyes of the world. Kenyan athletics, mainly in middle- and long-distance events, continued to assert itself until it dominated the medal ranking in the 2015 World Championships. However, even if it is a vehicle for emancipation and identity-building, Kenyan athletics is also dependent on external influences. Therefore, even though France and Kenya never had colonial links, they have built interdependent relationships in athletics during the post-colonial era. The purpose of this study is to understand the particular postcolonial process around which these relationships were built, in the absence of colonial ties. We have chosen to conduct this study based on the investigation of minutes of the French Athletics Federation (FFA) committees and the journal L’Athlétisme, the official FFA review. We conducted semi-structured interviews with Kenyan and French athletics actors (athletes, managers, race organizers, and federal officials). These data reveal a continuing domination of Kenya, by France, in athletics. This relationship of domination marks a survival of the colonial order. However, Kenyan athletes’ domination, especially in marathons, contributes to the vulnerability of French performances. The singularity of the postcolonial process studied lies as much in the absence of colonial ties between France and Kenya as in the transformation of a relationship of domination specific to the colonial period.
