| Summary/Abstract |
If we postulate that International Relations is not meeting the expectations that many have assigned to it, and that it may even be at risk of losing some of its intellectual appeal in the foreseeable future, what could the reasons be? This essay seeks to provide answers by identifying three general problems that the field currently faces, in many respects as a result of its increasing professionalization. The first is the excessive need of IR scholars to operate within the traditional parameters of the field; the second is their too weak relationship with the `real' world; and the third, the absence of freedom that undermines creative, intuitive thinking.

| Summary/Abstract |
In 1997, I found myself newly arrived at Oxford University. I was taking a detour from my path to do research in West Africa thanks to a fellowship that funded a year of ancillary training before my fieldwork. Though studying anthropology, I was at St. Antony's College, where Paul Collier's Center for the Study of African Economies is located, and was in the same entering cohort as Collier's now-famous student Dambisa Moyo (assuming I would not be able to remember her first name, she offered, "it sounds kind of like 'pizza'").
