Abstract
Lecture Notes, Summer School on Effective Theories and Fundamental Interactions, Erice, 1996. The application of effective field theory methods to the low energy structure of QCD is discussed. I emphasize the universal structure of the corresponding effective Lagrangian and then discuss the physics of the effective coupling constants. The implications of the effective theory for the masses of the light quarks are analyzed in some detail.
