I welcome the opportunity of presenting this short paper to the meeting, particularly as I have just returned from the United States, where I have seen something of the modern trend of psychiatry in that country.The memorandum on the future organization of the psychiatric services, published by this Association in 1944, defines a psychiatric unit as that part of a general hospital, whether in-patients or out-patient, which is set aside for the treatment of mental disorders, with or without legal formalities.

When one talks of the difficulties of the aerospace industry in this country, it is all too easy to point a finger westwards to the United States. It then seems right to talk of long production runs and large home markets. One can then turn to our own industry and to its output since the last War, and perhaps forgive.But should we?In this short paper, a young author intends to examine professional education and manpower in aeronautics, because herein must be the reason for any future success or failure of the products of the industry, and the pointer to the future level of expertise in the art.

This paper focuses on gendered mobilities of highly skilled researchers working abroad. It is based on an empirical qualitative study that explored the mobility aspirations of Austrian scientists who were working in the United States at the time they were interviewed. Supported by a case study, the paper demonstrates how a qualitative research strategy including graphic drawings sketched by the interviewed persons can help us gain a better understanding of the gendered importance of social relations for the future mobility aspirations of scientists working abroad.

This paper addresses some of the Muslim community’s concerns regarding its children’s education and reflects upon how education has shaped the position of other communities in American history. It argues that the future of Muslim education will be influenced directly by the present realities and future trends within American education in general, and, more importantly, by the well-calculated and informed short-term and long-term decisions and future plans taken by the Muslim community. The paper identifies some areas in which a wellestablished knowledge base is critical to making decisions, and calls for serious research to be undertaken to furnish this base.
