[en] The conflict between the description of a field theory by its asymptotic states and the confinement of quarks in QCD is discussed. It is argued that a correct hadronic description of QCD (in terms of color singlets) may require very unusual vertex functions, despite the overlap of parts of the path integral with natural hadronic degrees-of-freedom. A formalism, which incorporates many of the advantages of an hadronic description into a quark picture, is described. Dibaryons are presented which show how well this approach illuminates the physics relevant to the multiquark problem. 14 refs., 1 fig., 5 tabs
