"Many scholars believed that the changing of national leadership will to some extent also lead to the changing of foreign policy. This also applies to US foreign policy when Donald Trump took office as the 45th President of the US.Particularly in the foreign policy, his campaigns rhetoric brought up questions on the direction of US relations with its allies and adversaries. Previously, the US goverment under President Barrack Obama focused his foreign policy to Asia Pacific and Indonesia in particular with his "rebalance policy". With the changing of leadership of the US, some may argue that Donald Trump will also make some changes of his foreign policy toward Southeast Asia. This article discusses the possible impacts of the new US foreign polcy to Southeast Asia, in particular to Indonesia. It argues that in the short term, US foreign policy will pay more attention to non-Asia Pacific affairs. However, with the dynamic changes in the region, the US foreign policy to the region and especially to Indonesia will not alter substantially. US Vice President Mike Pence visit to Indonesia on April, 2017 indicated a positive continuity in US-Indonesia bilateral relations especially with discussion on deepening economic and security cooperation. To put it another way, there will be components of changes and continuity of US foreign policy to Indonesia due to its strategic interest to the region and to Indonesia."

"Indonesia dan Belanda merupakan dua negara yang memiliki ikatan kuat berdasarkan sejarah kolonialisme selama berabad-abad lamanya. Bahkan, sejak Indonesia merdeka pada 1945, kedua negara telah terlibat dalam berbagai dinamika hubungan bilateral yang cukup fluktuatif. Akan tetapi, kuatnya hubungan tersebut berbanding terbalik dengan perkembangan pembahasannya dalam ranah akademis, terutama dalam kajian ilmu hubungan internasional. Penulis meninjau perkembangan literatur mengenai hubungan bilateral Indonesia-Belanda pasca 1945 melalui sembilan belas literatur yang ditinjau berdasarkan metode taksonomi dengan membagi pembahasan menjadi tiga tema besar, yaitu 1) Hubungan Politik; 2) Hubungan Ekonomi; dan 3) Hubungan Sosial Budaya. Tinjauan pustaka ini disusun dengan tujuan untuk mengidentifikasi konsensus, perdebatan, dan kesenjangan dalam literatur terkait topik ini. Selain itu, penulis juga mengamati tren-tren berupa tema penulisan, asal penulis literatur, serta disiplin ilmu yang digunakan. Penulis menemukan bahwa memori masa lalu menghambat hubungan bilateral seiring dengan berjalannya waktu. Hal ini kemudian berkontribusi pula terhadap terhambatnya diskusi akademik mengenai topik tersebut. Tinjauan pustaka ini juga mengidentifikasi Masa Revolusi yang merupakan perang antara Indonesia dan Belanda pada tahun 1945-1949 setelah Indonesia memproklamasikan kemerdekaannya sebagai isu paling dominan dalam pembahasan mengenai hubungan bilateral Indonesia-Belanda pasca 1945. Lalu, celah penelitian yang penulis temukan adalah pembahasan yang cenderung tumpang tindih, minimnya perspektif Indonesia, kurangnya pembahasan mengenai kerja sama bilateral, serta absennya pembahasan mengenai cara Indonesia berurusan dengan trauma kolonialisme.

Indonesia and the Netherlands are the two countries that have strong ties based on the history of colonialism for centuries. In fact, since Indonesia's independence in 1945, the two countries have been involved in various dynamics of bilateral relations which have been quite volatile. However, the strength of this relationship is inversely proportional to the development of its discussion in the academic realm, especially in the study of international relations. The author reviews the development of literature on bilateral relations of Indonesia-the Netherlands after 1945 through seventeen literatures reviewed based on the taxonomic method by dividing the discussion into three major themes, namely 1) Political Relations; 2) Economic Relations; and 3) Socio-Cultural Relations. This literature review was prepared with the aim of identify the consensus, debate, and gaps in the literature related to this topic. Apart from that, the author also observes trends in the form of writing themes, scholar’s origin, and the disciplines used. The author finds that past memories hamper bilateral relations over time. This then contributes to the inhibition of academic discussion on the topic. This literature review also identified the Masa Revolusi which was a war between Indonesia and the Netherlands in 1945-1949 after Indonesia proclaimed its independence as the most dominant issue in the discussion on the bilateral relations of Indonesia-the Netherlands after 1945. Then, the gaps in the research that the authors found were discussions that tended to overlap, the lack of an Indonesian perspective, the lack of discussion on bilateral cooperation, and the absence of discussion about how Indonesia deals with the trauma of colonialism."
