Abstract

I review the notion of the quark-hadron duality from the modern perspective. The proper theoretical framework in which the problem can be formulated and treated is Wilson's operator product expansion (OPE). Two models developed for the description of duality violations are considered in some detail: one is instanton-based, another resonancebased. The mechanisms they represent are complementary.
