The present theory of flavordynamics is discussed. After giving a general introduction into the field we describe the gauge theory framework and the spontaneous symmetry breaking. Several examples of spontaneously broken theories are studied. We describe the standard theory of leptons and quarks. A special emphasis is given to a discussion of the weak decays of strange and charmed particles. Furthermore the neutral current interaction is studied. We discuss the sequential flavordynamics of leptons and quarks, concentrating on the six flavor scheme, and speculations about extended schemes of flavordynamics. The report concludes with a description of weak interactions at very high energies (production and decays of W, Z or Higgs bosons etc.).
