contents We present the notion of non-abelian descent type, which classifies torsors up to twisting by a Galois cocycle. This relies on the previous construction of kernels and non-abelian Galois 2-cohomology due to Springer and Borovoi. The necessity of descent types arises in the context of the descent theory where no torsors are given a priori, for example, when we wish to study the arithmetic properties such as the Brauer--Manin obstruction to the Hasse principle on homogeneous spaces without rational points. This new definition also unifies the types by Colliot-Thélène--Sansuc, the extended types by Harari--Skorobogatov, and the finite descent type by Harpaz--Wittenberg.
