Anthropologiai Közlemények 32. (1989-1990)

1989-1990 / 1-2. füzet - Előszó e kötethez

EDITORIAL The successful 6th Congress of the European Anthropological Association, organized in Budapest early September, 1988 was an important milestone of our Association. The 211 scientists came from 26 countries of Europe, Africa and North-America. During the three-day Congress 154 papers and posters were presented and 42 of them were published as selected papers in the Volume 19 of the Humanbiologia Budapestinensis (1989). I planned to publish the other papers in the Hungarian journal "Anthropologiai Közlemények", however, because of the well-known economic problems in Hungary in the late 1980s the publication of this valuable material had a long delay. In 1989/901 asked for some financial contribution to the expenses of the journal from several Hungarian institutes. In August 1991 the necessary money were together and now I am able to publish the present volume. I should like to express my grateful thanks to the following institutions of whom donations made this publication possible: Buda Children's Hospital, Budapest Department of Anthropology, Eötvös Loránd University, Budapest Department of Anthropology, József Attila University, Szeged Department of Anthropology, Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest Department of Evolutionary Zoology and Human Biology, Kossuth Lajos University, Debrecen Department of Hygiene, Debrecen University Medical School, Debrecen Hungarian Biological Society, Budapest Hungarian University of Physical Education, Budapest National Institute of Pediatrics, Budapest Training College for Teachers of Handicapped Children, Budapest As I thank for the financial aid of the heads and colleagues of the above-mentioned institutions, I do not omit to express my thanks also to the authors of this volume for their scholarly contributions. My special thanks are due to the reviewers (listed on Page 2 of this volume) for their genuine international scientific co-operation. - A very special word of appreciation must go to Mrs Judith Horváth for preparing all the figures in this volume and her "nursing" of this volume, then to Mrs Edith Csányi by whom the whole text was typed, and to the collective of the Plantin Publisher and Printing House Ltd for their careful work during the printing process.
