Description
We review the properties of young superstellar clusters and the impact
that their evolution has in their host galaxies. In particular we look
at the development of strong isotropic winds emanating from massive
clusters, capable of disrupting the remains of the parental cloud as
well as causing the large-scale restructuring of the surrounding ISM. As
an extreme example, we infer from the observations of M82 the detailed
inner structure of supergalactic winds and define through numerical
simulations the ingredients required to match such structures.
