Abstract

Recent results on measurements of the strong coupling αS\alpha_S from LEP are reported. These include analyses of the 4-jet rate using the Durham or Cambridge algorithm, of hadronic Z0Z^0 decays with hard final state photon radiation, of scaling violations of the fragmentation function, of the longitudinal cross section, of the Z0Z^0 lineshape and of hadronic τ\tau lepton decays.
