This report summarizes the present knowledge on discharges in micropattern and small gap gaseous detectors and the physical mechanisms involved. These include the space-charge (Raether's) limit, rate-induced breakdown, cathode excitation effect and electron emission from the cathodes in the form of jets, inter-GEM breakdown in multistep configurations and finally surface streamers.
