Abstract :
[en] I review the optical polarization properties of both low- and high-luminosity AGN, focusing on the origin of the polarization and its relation to AGN properties, in particular the geometry of the scattering regions. The use of polarization to follow AGN orientations along the large-scale structures will also be discussed.
