    Description
    Event shape distributions describe the behavior of gluon radiation emitted in the final state of hard colli-sions at all scales. Thus, they provide a unique tool to probe the interface between perturbative and non-perturbative QCD. I will describe some recent studies of event shapes in e+e- annihilation, combining Sudakov resummations with models of power corrections, and briefly comment on possible extensions of these studies to hadronic collisions.
