This introduction summarises problems as they appeared at beginning during starting phase program. Special emphasis is placed on following subjects: foreland Alpine collision front its relation tectonics Upper Rhine Graben graben Lower Embayment; shear heating vs. hot spot hypothesis; interaction between uplift, rifting, volcanism mantle heterogeneities, asymmetries west east Rhine.
