We propose a dynamic version of the three-dimensional translation gauge theory of dislocations. In our approach, we use the notions of the dislocation density and dislocation current tensors as translational field strengths and the corresponding response quantities (pseudomoment stress, dislocation momentum flux). We derive a closed system of field equations in a very elegant quasi-Maxwellian form as equations of motion for dislocations. In this framework, the dynamical Peach-Koehler force density is derived as well. Finally, the similarities and the differences between the Maxwell field theory and the dislocation gauge theory are presented.
