I summarize what we know of renormalons from the 1970s and 80s: their uses and theoretical status. It is emphasized that renormalons in QCD are closely related to the Wilsonean operator product expansion (OPE) - a setup ideally suited for dealing with the factorially divergent series reflecting infrared dynamics. I discuss a breakthrough proposal due to Uraltsev et al. to use renormalons to evaluate nonperturbative (power) corrections in the processes without OPE. Some fresh ideas which were put forward recently are briefly discussed too, with emphasis on a possible relationship between resurgence via trans-series and OPE. This article is devoted to the memory of my friend Kolya Uraltsev. I should emphasize that these are my personal recollections. Other people who closely knew Kolya may or may not agree with my opinions.

Renormalon-like factorial enhancements to power expansion/OPE in a super-renormalizable 2D $O(N)$ quartic model
In the 2D large-N O(N) quartic model, the large-momentum OPE of the scalar two-point function is divergent: coefficient functions and operator condensates carry n! factorial growths that cancel only off-diagonally, ne...
