We review recent progress in the theoretical description of anisotropic hardcolloidal particles. The shapes considered range from rods and dumbbells torounded cubes, polyhedra and to biaxial particles with arbitrary shape. Ourfocus is on both static and dynamical density functional theory and on computersimulations. We describe recent results for the structure, dynamics and phasebehaviour in the bulk and in various confining geometries, e.g. established bytwo parallel walls which reduce the dimensionality of the system to twodimensions. We also include recent theoretical modelling for active particles,which are autonomously driven by some intrinsic motor, and highlight theirfascinating nonequilibrium dynamics and collective behaviour.
