This chapter investigates in which ways the notion of sovereignty together with its shifting conceptions form part of the foreign aid regime governmental rationality. Distinguishing between the conservative/conflictual and the transformative/cooperative potential intrinsic to any gift-giving practice, Furia then uses these categories to analyse the ways in which foreign aid practices have been interpreted and themes such as poverty, inequality and the obligation to extend aid, have been constructed and put into practice in the operations of the foreign aid regime. In conclusion, the same categories are applied to the notions of community/immunity and order/disorder, to show how the foreign aid regime proliferates through the continuous interplay between the one(s) and the other(s).
