Quantum chromodynamics predicts that the interaction between its fundamental constituents, quarks and gluons, can lead to different states of strongly interacting matter, dependent on its temperature and baryon density. We first survey the possible states of matter in QCD and discuss the transition from a color-confining hadronic phase to a plasma of deconfined colored quarks and gluons. Next, we summarize the results from non-perturbative studies of QCD at finite temperature and baryon density, and address the origin of deconfinement in the different regimes. Finally, we consider possible probes to test the basic features of bulk matter in QCD.
