Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: In this paper we present initial results from a survey of over 1000 IR faculty in the United States that was conducted in late 2004. We also describe trends in IR publications from a sample of journal articles in the leading IR journals. Teaching and Research in International Politics: Trends over the Past Two Decades Over the past 25 years the international system has undergone a drastic shift from a bipolar world characterized by a Cold War between two superpowers to a system with a single great power and a wide range of new issues on the agenda. Transnational issues, such as drug trafficking, the spread of infectious disease and terrorism increasingly top the agendas of foreign policy makers. On the one hand, globalization appears to be making the world a smaller place, characterized by increased economic interdependence and information transfers. On the other hand, intrastate and regional violence has destroyed many states, leading to questions about the very notion of sovereignty. Given these substantial changes over the past few decades, have research and teaching in international relations (IR) changed significantly in response to global events? Do the paradigms that defined the field after World War II still dominate scholarly work and teaching in IR? In this study we undertake the first systematic quantitative analysis of IR research and teaching among American scholars. Our paper thus compares what we preach (research) with what we teach (pedagogy in the classroom). We code articles published in the top ten IR and political science journals from 1980-2003. In an effort to shed empirical light on a debate thus far characterized by mostly heat (see Legro, Moravscik, Vasquez, Mearsheimer, Smith). Our investigation assesses which prominent paradigms and epistemologies have been employed over time in the field's major journals. Despite the numerous (and reasonable) claims that social constructivism has made a real impact on the field of IR, no previous study has attempted to provide systematic evidence that could verify this claim. We do. In addition, we code for methods used, regions and subjects under study, level of analysis, efforts at paradigmatic synthesis, and the interest in the role of norms and ideas in IR scholarship. In short, we paint a picture of the field over the past two decades. We compare these trends with results from extensive survey of IR professors teaching undergraduate courses in American colleges and universities over the same time period. This study is the first step toward the construction of the most extensive database on IR teaching and research among American political scientists.
