In this paper, the authors relate closure operations on classes of groups to localization theory. The categorical definition reveals that closure operations on classes of groups are localization functors in the category of group theoretical classes and points out connections between closure operations on classes of groups and radicals. The authors find, for any localization functor in the category of groups, a ``best approximation in terms of an epireflection and a reduction. They show how to associate such an epireflection and a reduction to any orthogonal pair in \({\mathcal G}rp\). They generalize a result of Casacuberta and Descheemaeker and prove that classes of local groups for epireflections are in bijective correspondence with residually and subgroup closed classes of groups. Every orthogonal pair \((S,D)\) in \({\mathcal G}rp\) gives rise to an epireflection \(L\) such that the class of local groups of \(L\) is the residual and subgroup closure of \(D\). Then they specialize this theory to reductions and prove that classes of local groups for reductions are in bijective correspondence with classes of groups which are residually, subgroup and extension closed. So, every orthogonal pair \((S,D)\) in \({\mathcal G}rp\) generates a reduction \(P\) such that the class of local groups of \(P\) is exactly the residual, subgroup, extension closure of \(D\). In this approach through closure operations the authors associate with any orthogonal pair in \({\mathcal G}rp\), not necessarily reflective, an epireflection and a reduction which are in some sense maximal. Finally, they characterize the class of acyclic groups for a given localization as a certain closed complement of its local groups.
