First post

Yes, this is another blog to add to the great ether of cyberspace.This blog is specifically born from my frustrations with politicalscience academia, caused both by the field in general and thepolitical science department at SUNY Buffalo in particular.My critical view on this department has less to do with theschool itself, than the fact that its professors are cogs of thelarger field of political science academia in the US. Also, my criticism (and this blog) is based on the intellectual issuesof the field. In this blog, I will be discussing questions, pointsand observations that went unanswered during my gradate school career. Also, I will make comments on the literature I read in my courses andpersonal research.
