Abstract
A brief review is given of the status of nucleon spin structure functions as determined from polarized deep inelastic lepton-nucleon scatttering, including current outstanding problems. The characteristics of a polarized HERA collider, some of the particle physics topics it could address, and the accelerator physics challenges it must meet are discussed.
