Resumen:
This lecture is a short review of string theory on three dimensional anti-de Sitter spacetime. We critically examine the important progress achieved in recent years, emphasizing the relevance of the AdS/CFT correspondence in our comprehension of the theory, and pointing out some issues which remain unclear. We discuss various aspects of the Feigin-Fuchs construction of this nonrational conformal field theory.
