Whatever the recent progress of Latin American (LA) studies in the US, it is less evident to outsiders than to specialists in the field. Defects of our LA programs are most noticeable at the liberal-arts core of humanities & the soc sci's. Anthrop in its present state, offers the best point of departure for examining LA culture; literary & historical studies are esp weak. A drawback to LA as a field of study, in contrast to Asia or Africa, is that its culture is deceptively recognizable to Amer's. Moreover, our inherited suspicion of the Catholic world discourages study of its intellectual origins, & prevents us from identifying its sociol'al & psychol'al foundations. Today the wholesale subsidizing of LA studies threatens to cut them off further from our academic mainstream & to encourage mediocrity. The various causes for the poverty of our LA programs may possibly relate to our submerged doubts about the wisdom of the original Protestant secession. AA.

Africans have, since the early settlement of America, influenced the nation's language, manners, religion, literature, music, art, & dance. One of the US' most crucial Ur problems, the Negro Ls fam, may have African origins. In the realm of pol, the civil rights fight in the US has been linked from its origin to the struggle for African freedom, & US Negro intellectuals have identified with African culture from the beginning of the cent; this identification has been reinforced since 1956, with the formation of the Internat'I Society of African Culture & the Amer Society of African Culture. US Negro leadership has collectively thrown its pol'al weight on the side of African freedom, & black nat'list org's have maintained great agitation. In the midst of this, the US must deal with a considerable African oresence in the TIN_ AA.

The att, use & knowledge AUK fertility survey: (1) serves sci by showing that soc & psychol'al facts can be collected & interpreted sci'lly; (2) demonstrates the existence of a demand in the various underdeveloped countries for birth control; & (3) is a relatively non-controversial method of initiating activity in pop control in SP settings where direct efforts are not possible. 2 types of surveys which will have major impacts in Latin America are: (A) an organized internat'l series of AUK surveys & (B) an as yet unorganized set of studies of induced abortions. The AUK surveys are to be carried out simultaneously in the major city of the participating countries (to date 7), about 2,000 F's 15-49 being systematically sampled in each city. Personal interviews & a basic questionaire will be used. These surveys are expected to show a motivation for small fam's combined with ignorance of methods to achieve restricted fam size. Res projects utilizing before & after surveys are now under way to determine: (a) the extent of induced abortion in the general pop; (b) the extent & speed at which a contraceptive program can reduce (a) & whether this will affect the birth rate; & (c) if a program utilizing intrauterine device has diff consequences from those emphasizing oral tablets or the conventional contraceptives.
