This paper immediately preceded the author's new definitive book on class field theory [Advanced topics in computational number theory, Graduate Texts in Mathematics. 193. Springer (2000)]. So it is essentially an extended abstract (or outline), which also highlights certain current topics in that book, e.g., Stark's units [\textit{X. F. Roblot}, C. R. Acad. Sci., Paris, Sér. I 323, 1165-1168 (1996; Zbl 0871.11080)] and complex multiplication [\textit{R. Schertz}, J. Théor. Nombres Bordx. 9, 383-394 (1997; Zbl 0902.11047)].
