Magnetism is known to be the primary agent governing the various phenomena grouped under the name of solar activity, and is most likely responsible for the manifestations of solar-like activity observed in stars other than the Sun. Rotation and magnetism are ubiquitous among solar-type stars, as the two are closely linked through the hydromagnetic dynamo believed to operate in stellar interiors. A proper understanding of stellar and solar magnetism consequently requires an understanding of rotational evolution. In the first part of this talk I will briefly review the various ways in which magnetic fields affect the rotational evolution of solar-type stars on and near the main-sequence (the primary hydrogen burning phase of stellar evolution), and will present some of the relevant observational material. I will then discuss in more detail one specific topic, namely how magnetic fields can mediate the redistribution of angular momentum throughout stellar interiors, and in doing so influence the overall rotational evolution of stars.
