In this article, the author presents some developments in European social psychology. The major ones are financial, political, those concerning membership policy and the level of general involvement in the activities of the European Association of Experimental Social Psychology. A simple and basic truth is that the association cannot survive without funds. Without them the Committee cannot function and in author's experience, without the Committee functioning properly nothing else would function, nor would one be able to maintain the present level of activities and to initiate new projects. Even if the present funds can be stretched for a time, in the long run the continuing active existence of the Association depends on a good deal of individual initiative, both from the Committee members and others.
