This paper reviews current theoretical work on the various stages of accre- tion in protostars, and the relationship of these ideal stages to the spectral classes of 9 observed protostellar systems. I discuss scaling relationships that have been obtained 2 for models of pre-stellar cores as they evolve by ambipolar diffusion toward a central singularity, and expectations for the dynamical evolution as the cores collapse radially 1 v to form a rotating disk. I summarize work that suggests accretion in T Tauri systems 7 may be limited by ionization to disk surface layers, and implications for the variation ˙ 3 of MD with radius. Finally, I describe models for the asymptotic structure of free 3 magnetocentrifugal winds, and show that the constant-density surfaces in these winds 2 may be strongly collimated even when the streamlines are not. 1 7 9 / h INTRODUCTION p - o r The subject of this review is accretion in protostellar systems, which is properly t s a hot topic in a figurative but not a literal sense. In the other accreting systems a discussed at this meeting, the observed high-energy emission often dominates the : v longer-wavelength flux, and much of the current theoretical effort is devoted to i X develo
