    The author surveys the methods of proof of the theorem: Let \(A\subset \mathbb P\) be a subset of primes with positive relative upper density: \[ \lim\sup_{N\rightarrow\infty}\frac{A\cap[1,N]} {\mathbb P\cap[1,N]}>0, \] and let \(k\geq 3\). Then \(A\) contains infinitely many arithmetic progressions of length \(k\). In particular, the primes contain arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions.
