We review some theoretical and phenomenological aspects of the scenario in which the spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetry is not triggered by a formation of a large condensate <q q>. Emphasis is put on the resulting pattern of light quark masses, on the constraints arising from QCD sum rules and on forthcoming experimental tests.
