Résumé :	Reviews current knowledge and understanding of systems with competing energy scales, particularly with regard to phase transitions and dynamics. Both general and scientific aspects are considered.
Note de contenu :	Contents: * Low-temperature phases, ordering and dynamics in random media. * Statics and dynamics of the flux-line lattice in high-T[subscript c] superconductors. * Magnetic flux line lattices in the cuprate superconductors. * Theory and experiment of flux pinning and flux creep in high T[subscript c] superconductors. * Vortex line fluctuations in superconductors from elementary quantum mechanics. ...
