The next blow came last May, when HIID's then-director, world-famous economist and Stone Professor of International Trade Jeffrey D. Sachs '76, announced he was leaving the Institute in little over a month.
Instead, he would focus his time on various other international programs at Harvard, in particular his job heading up the newly formed Center for International Development--intended to be a more research-oriented corollary to HIID.
Still, Fineberg says, "The world of international development has evolved from since HIID was started... There are really significant questions of whether the education is really best served in that form today."
With management problems ranging from deficits, to unpaid and disgruntled employees, to scandal that impinges on the international relations of two superpowers, Harvard may well decide the time has come to retire its international consulting operation.
Just as the new partnership stretches across international borders, the two schools hope their cooperation with industry--particularly in the United Kingdom--will improve productivity in an expanding global economy.
