Abstract
A class of gauge theories which incorporate CP violation is discussed. The CP violating effects arise as a consequence of performing a different rotation in the SU(3) space for the left- and right-handed strangeness conserving charged currents. It is suggested that it is possible to understand the smallness of these effects in the K 0− K 0 system even in the presence of a large relative phase between the left- and right-handed weak currents. The electric dipole moments of hadrons are of fifth order in the semi-weak coupling constant whereas for leptons they are of seventh order. These electric dipole moments are considerably smaller than the experimental upper limits.
