DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Event horizons may occur near black holes\, in flat 
 space or in a cosmological spacetimes.  In the last decade important prog
 ress has been in the understanding of the quantum properties of the horizo
 ns. These advances have revealed a deep connection between thermodynamics\
 , quantum entanglement\, and the emergence of the laws of gravitation.Even
  the fabric of spacetime itself has to be viewed as being emergent from a 
 microscopic quantum mechanical description. In this colloquium I will revi
 ew these developments and explain the recent insights on the black hole in
 formation paradox.Subsequently I will discuss the generalization and impli
 cations of these ideas to flat space and cosmological spacetimes. I will e
 nd with a discussion of possible observational consequences.
