I review some of the steps that have been done in the direction of constructing an effective field theory for this limit. I describe some of its building blocks and explain why we expect the effective theory to be a 2+1-dimensional conformal field theory.10 pages, 7 figures included, Latex using epsfig.sty and sprocl.sty; Talk presented at the International School of Subnuclear Physics, 34th Course: Effective Theories and Fundamental Interactions, Erice, Sicily, July 1996; to appear in the proceedingsHigh Energy Physics - PhenomenologyTowards an Effective Theory of Small-x QCDtext
