Scientific paper

The spontaneous symmetry breaking (and Higgs) mechanism in the theory quantized on the light-front ({\it l.f.}), in the {\it discretized formulation}, is discussed. The infinite volume limit is taken to obtain the {\it continuum version}. The hamiltonian formulation is shown to contain a new ingredient in the form of nonlocal {\it constraint eqs.} which lead to a {\it nonlocal l.f. Hamiltonian}. The description of the broken symmetry here has the same physical content as in the conventional formulation though arrived at through a different mechanism.
