dc.descriptionGamma-Ray Burst afterglow polarization measurements, in spite of their intrinsic difficulties, have been carried out for a number of events that begins to be adequate to draw some general statistical conclusions. Although the presence of some degree of intrinsic polarization seems to be well established, there are still open problems regarding the polarization time evolution and the possible contribution of polarization induced by dust in the host galaxies.
