Abstract


This contribution reviews the most recent experimental results obtained on the polarization anisotropy of the Cosmic Microwave Background and those anticipated in the near future. Some basic arguments for a dedicated satellite are also presented, as well as the need for a better characterization of polarized Galactic foregrounds.
