A discussion of the strategic information management needed to support a European intergovernmental social science program called MOST (Management of Social Transformations). Information needs in the preparatory, research design, fieldwork, & report phases are addressed to show how MOST can help in each. The exploitation of existing databases, creation of other databases, national & regional networking, development of technical infrastructures for the transmission of data, problems of multilingualism, & training of information workers & researchers are all addressed as aspects of strategic information management. The relationship between research, existing information, & policy is examined. It is suggested that although policymakers can & should use information gathered through research, the social sciences will suffer if their research is dominated by criteria not of their making. 1 Photograph, 5 References.

The physical, economic, and mental toll caused by violence in the United States has put tremendous pressure on American medical, political, religious, and social institutions. The impact in urban neighborhoods has been especially harrowing, forcing African-American organizations to address this domestic problem with ideas and suggestions unique to their philosophies and collective talents. This article contains general perspectives and commentary from physicians and social science experts who participated in a workshop sponsored by the National Medical Association, the National Institute of Drug Abuse, and the National Institute of Mental Health to discuss topics on violence, its health consequences, and the conduct of research in the African-American community.
