Abstract We consider measured foliations on surfaces, and interval exchanges. We give alternative proofs of the following theorems first proved by Masur and (independently) Veech. The action of the diffeomorphism group of the surface on the projective space of measured foliations (with respect to a natural ‘Lebesgue’ measure) is ergodic. Almost all measured foliations are uniquely ergodic. Almost all interval exchanges (again, with respect to a natural ‘Lebesgue’ measure) are uniquely ergodic.
