Abstract:
One of the most urgent problems in particle physics is the question, how the electroweak symmetry is broken. First hints towards the answers to this problem are expected by the LHC which will start operation around 2006. In this talk it will be shown how much the information, obtained by the LHC, is complemented by the one obtained at a future e+e- linear collider below around 1 TeV and that finally both machines will be needed to understand electroweak symmetry- breaking.
