Abstract

I will review some of the developments in studies of the host galaxy properties of Compact Steep Spectrum (CSS) and Gigahertz-Peaked Spectrum (GPS) radio sources. In contrast to previous reviews structured around observational technique, I will discuss the host galaxy properties in terms of morphology, stellar content and warm gas properties and discuss how compact, young radio-loud AGN are key objects for understanding galaxy evolution. © 2009 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
