Effective Field Theories from QCD
  We present a method for extracting effective Lagrangians from QCD. The resulting effective Lagrangians are based on exact rewrites of cut-off QCD in terms of these new collective field degrees of freedom. These cut-off Lagrangians are thus ``effective'' in the sense that they explicitly contain some of the physical long-distance degrees of freedom from the outset. As an example we discuss the introduction of a new collective field carrying the quantum numbers of the $\eta'$-meson. (Contribution presented by R. Sollacher at the workshop ``QCD'94'', Montpellier, France, July 7-13, 1994. To appear in those proceedings.)
