It has been more than 100 years since Einstein proposed his general theory of relativity. Even though it has passed all experimental tests, there remain some mysteries in the current understanding of Nature which motivate the study of alternative theories of gravitation. The simplest modifications are obtained by considering a scalar field in addition to the tensor of general relativity. The first part of the thesis is devoted to the cosmology of scalar-tensor theories exhibiting spontaneous scalarization. We show that the tachyonic effective mass responsible for scalarization generically spoils the inflationary stage of the Universe, and argue that this instability can be cured in a particular class of theories. The second part is about t...
