  This review is devoted to the large-scale rheology of suspensions of rigid particles in Stokes fluid. After describing recent results on the definition of the effective viscosity of such systems in the framework of homogenization theory, we turn to our new results on the asymptotic expansion of the effective viscosity in the dilute regime. This includes an optimal proof of Einstein's viscosity formula for the first-order expansion, as well as the continuation of this expansion to higher orders. The essential difficulty originates in the long-range nature of hydrodynamic interactions: suitable renormalizations are needed and are captured by means of diagrammatic expansions.
