    Summary: We examine optimization problems involving multidimensional nonsmooth integral functionals defined on Sobolev spaces. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for optimality in convex, finite-dimensional problems using techniques from convex analysis and in nonconvex, finite- dimensional problems, using the subdifferential of Clarke. We also consider problems with infinite-dimensional state space and we finally present two examples.
