The historical development of kinetic theory is reviewed with respect to the inclusion of virial corrections. Here the theory of dense gases differs from quantum liquids. While the first one leads to Enskog-type of corrections to the kinetic theory, the latter ones are described by quasiparticle concepts of Landau-type theories. A unifying kinetic theory is envisaged by the nonlocal quantum kinetic theory. Nonequilibrium phenomena are the essential processes which occur in nature. Any evolution is built up of involved causal networks which may render a new state of quality in the course of time evolution. The steady state or equilibrium is rather the exception in nature, if not a theoretical abstraction at all.

A brief review of resonance cones in magnetized plasmas and their relationship with guided wave modes in bounded plasmas is given. It is shown that these two concepts are related mathematically by a Watson transformation, and physically by being complementary descriptions of waves in a warm bounded plasma. A detailed summary of the complementary nature of these two wave descriptions is given.
