Abstract
This talk reviews some of the hot topics in spin physics and related subjects, including perturbative QCD predictions for polarized parton distributions and their possible behaviours at small x, the Bjorken and singlet sum rules and the treatment of higher orders in perturbative QCD, different interpretations of the EMC spin effect including chiral solitons and the axial U(1) anomaly, other experimental indications for the presence of strange quarks in the nucleon wave function, implications for dark matter physics, and a few words about polarization as a tool in electroweak physics.
