Collective processes occurring in high energy heavy ion collisions are discussed. The observed fluctuations and asymmetries have different causes, which is shown clearly in the experimental data for peripheral collisions. We discuss how these can be separated and which are the most interesting collective instabilities, which do not arise from random statistical fluctuations.
