Abstract
This article reviews three related topics: the extragalactic background l ight and its sources, evolution models for the dust absorption and emission in galaxies, and empirical constraints on these transfer pr ocesses in nearby starburst galaxies. It is intended that the material presented here will serve as an introduction to this Joint Discussion.
