The behavior of elastic scattering and of the electroproduction of nucleon resonances is shown to be closely related to the behavior of deep-inelastic electron-nucleon scattering. This relation is discussed in the context of duality ideas taken from strong-interaction processes. These ideas suggest that a substantial part of the observed behavior of inelastic electron-nucleon scattering is due to a nondiffractive component of virtual photon-nucleon scattering. Through finite-energy sum rules, quantitative relations between the elastic and resonance electroproduction form factors and the deep-inelastic scattering are derived and the behavior of inelastic scattering near threshold is calculated.
