Abstract: Summary The scope of this note is twofold. Firstly, an attempt is made to appraise the overall significance of the Rome Conference and the possibilities and limitations of what appear to be its main conclusions. In so doing, and in view of the wide coverage by the press of the work of the Conference, it is assumed that the topics discussed in Rome and the large number of resolutions adopted are by now sufficiently known. For further information the reader is referred to the Conference report.1 Secondly, some of the issues raised and lines of action proposed in the article by A. Simantov (this issue) will be briefly reviewed in the light of the information made available by the Rome Conference. This approach seems justified, among other reasons, by the consideration that Simantov's article was written some time before the Conference.
