Abstract
A previously proposed model of hadrons constructed out of quarks and strings is further developed into a fully interacting theory in any dimension. It is shown that in two dimensions chromodynamics is equivalent to this theory in the sense that the hadronic spectrum and matrix elements for the strong, weak, and electromagnetic interactions are identical in both theories.Keywords
