Abstract
We present new theories of dynamical supersymmetry breaking in which t he strong interactions that break supersymmetry also give rise to comp osite quarks and leptons with naturally small Yukawa couplings. In the se models, supersymmetry breaking is communicated directly to the comp osite fields without ''messenger'' interactions. The compositeness sca le can be anywhere between 10 TeV and the Planck scale. These models c an naturally solve the supersymmetric favor problem, and generically p redict sfermion mass unification independent from gauge unification. [ S0556-2821(98)03711-4].
