Hadronization corrections to the predictions of perturbative QCD are reviewed. The existing models for the conversion of quarks and gluons into hadrons are summarized. The most successful models give a good description of the data on e+e- event shapes and jet fragmentation functions, and suggest that the dominant hadronization effects have a 1/Q dependence on the hard process energy scale Q. In several cases the 1/Q terms can be understood in terms of a simple longitudinal phase-space model. They can also be inferred by relating non-perturbative renormalon effects to the infrared cutoff dependence of perturbative contributions.
