Karl Gustafsson and Linus Hagström argue that it can also be a creative force. Anxiety can help us develop better ideas and research problems. It can help us do better research
Professor of International Relations, Stockholm University
Karl has recently published articles in Contemporary Security Policy, International Studies Quarterly, the European Journal of International Relations and the Journal of International Relations and Development.
His article 'The insecurity of doing research and the ‘so what question’ in political science: how to develop more compelling research problems by facing anxiety' was just published in European Political Science.
