contents We use Soft Collinear Effective Theory (SCET) to factorize the polarized Deep Inelastic Scattering (DIS) structure functions $g_1(x)$ and $g_2(x)$, and to sum Sudakov double logarithms of $1-x$. The analysis is done both in terms of lightcone parton distributions and their moments. Computing $g_2$ requires subleading SCET operators which contain gluons. We calculate the one-loop matching coefficients from QCD onto these subleading SCET operators, and the one-loop matching from SCET onto the parton distribution function (PDF). The PDF in SCET is given by a bilocal operator, rather than the trilocal operator used in the QCD analysis of $g_2$ for generic $x$. We compute the one-loop anomalous dimension of the PDF operator for any $x$, and show that as $x \to 1$, it factors into a single-variable evolution. We comment on the QCD anomalous dimensions of twist-three operators, their equation-of-motion relation, and connection to the SCET analysis. We briefly discuss the definition of axial operators in the BMHV scheme. As a side result, we derive the $1/N$ dependence of the QCD coefficient functions for $F_1$, $F_L$ and $g_1$ in the $N \to \infty$ limit, where $N$ is the moment, which is expected to hold to all orders in $α_s$.
