Max Robinson, a co-anchorman on ABC's ''World News Tonight,'' was summoned to New York yesterday by ABC News president Roone Arledge, after having been quoted as telling a college audience on Sunday that ABC had discriminated against him and other black journalists. Mr. Robinson is reported to have said that they were excluded from coverage of the Presidential inauguration and the return of the hostages from Iran. Mr. Robinson, the anchorman in Chicago, made his speech before a Smith College audience. He told ABC officials yesterday that his comments had been quoted ''out of context'' and were ''misrepresented'' by a local newspaper, The Morning Union in Springfield, Mass. William Whitney, the city editor of The Morning Union, said the paper stood by its story.

There is considerable hope in Western Europe that President Reagan and Secretary of State Alexander M. Haig Jr. will bring flexibility, nuance and coherence to the management of American foreign policy. But remarks from the new Administration in Washington have already modified this optimism without fatally damaging it. Several European leaders have questioned whether harsh remarks by Mr. Reagan and Mr. Haig in their first few weeks in office about the Soviet Union can serve a constructive purpose. Others were struck by the apparent lack of coordination and sensitivity to the internal political problems of some allies that permitted Defense Secretary Caspar W. Weinberger to reopen discussion on stationing neutron weapons in Europe. Allies Are Now More Watchful Although Mr. Haig sought to smooth out the neutron weapons issue, the result is a more watchful attitude toward the Administration. Interviews with policy makers in six member countries of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization in the months leading up to the inauguration reflected a generalized hope that Mr. Reagan would bring more firmness to American policy while dropping his intense antiSoviet attitudes and his commitment to return the United States to a position of military superiority.

In ruling that there is no legal bar to Senate aides' doing political campaign work on government time, a Federal court has pointed up a gray area in campaign ethics at virtually all levels of elective office. A three-judge panel in Washington issued the ruling in dismissing an effort to penalize Senator Howard W. Cannon, Democrat of Nevada, for allegedly allowing an aide to work on his campaign over a long period while remaining on the Federal payroll. The court held that even if the allegation were true - Senator Cannon had denied it - it was not illegal. Surprised politicians who thumbed through the law books and Congressional rules and regulations found the court was right about the absence of a law regulating the Senate. ''The judges are probably right, but it is a dangerous kind of road to go down,'' said Representative Theodore S. Weiss, Democrat of Manhattan.

West Germany's Social Democrats are going through a kind of identity crisis that is making it increasingly difficult for Chancellor Helmut Schmidt to govern the nation effectively. The situation was described on Friday by Hans-Jurgen Wischnewski, the party's deputy chairman and an intimate of the Chancellor, as one of the most troubled in the post-World War II history of the Social Democrats. This followed by a couple of days a remark by Herbert Wehner, the party parliamentary whip and elder statesman, that the organization could split apart and bring the Government coalition of Social Democrats and Free Democrats down with it. Although these declarations had all the characteristics of knowing exaggeration, designed to scare some sense into the party's wandering factions, the fact is that the left wing of the party has staked out positions that clash with the Chancellor on the issues of the military budget, arms exports, disarmament, atomic energy, and a number of more specific domestic issues.

As President Reagan prepares to march up Capitol Hill and fight for a massive package of budget and tax cuts, he is clearly riding at the head of a powerful political army. Even many Democrats concede that the last election signified a widespread public desire for less government, and as Speaker Thomas P. O'Neill Jr., Democrat of Massachusetts, said after the President's economic speech last week, ''The honeymoon is still on.'' ''There is a real mood of willingness to move in on the budget,'' added Representative Timothy E. Wirth, a Colorado Democrat who plays a a key role on the House Budget Committee. ''There's an increasing awareness that the budget is on an unsustainable course.''

If Chief Justice Warren E. Burger intended to touch off a vigorous debate by calling yesterday for a renewed war on crime, he succeeded almost immediately. Barely an hour after the Chief Justice finished his speech to the American Bar Association convention here, Bruce J. Ennis, the national legal director of the American Civil Liberties Union, appeared in the convention's press room with a strongly worded critique of his proposals for limiting multiple appeals by convicted prisoners and for tightening the standards for release on bail before trial. The Chief Justice was offering a ''simplistic, short-term solution to crime in America,'' Mr. Ennis said, ''but it will not in the long run create respect for law.'' Much of Chief Justice Burger's audience was more receptive. The lawyers interrupted him with applause eight times. One of the applause lines was his observation that increased expenditures in the fight against crime were ''as much a part of our national defense as the budget of the Pentagon.''

Amax Inc., the diversified natural resources producer, said a decline in shipments of molybdenum, a refined ore used primarily in steel production, contributed to a 13.9 percent decline in fourthquarter earnings. Amax, with headquarters in Greenwich, Conn., said profits were $88.7 million, or $1.35 a share, compared with $103 million, or $1.82 a share, in last year's fourth quarter.

OCCIDENTAL'S PROFITS SLIP

The Occidental Petroleum Corporation reported yesterday that earnings for last year's fourth quarter fell 26 percent from the comparable 1979 period, largely because of a substantial drop in production and profit margins on the company's Libyan operations. The poorer fourth quarter reflected a general industry trend, but analysts have been hard-pressed to come up with simple explanations. Except for generally less profitable refining and marketing operations in the United States, each company's performance appears to be largely related to specific operations.
