QCD and Hadronic Interactions: Summary talk for Moriond 97

Abstract

This talk covers a selection of topics that were discussed at this meeting in the non-heavy-ion sessions: (a) The high $Q^2$ events at HERA and their theoretical interpretation. (b) The issues of how well we know the predictions of QCD, with a particular emphasis on resummation. (c) Anomalies in jet production in association with $W$ bosons at the Tevatron and in dijet production in deep-inelastic scattering. (d) Diffractive hard scattering.
