Abstract

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.
