We study deformations of dualities in finite N=2 supersymmetric QCD. Addingmass terms for some quarks and the adjoint matter to the finite N=2 theory,which is known to have dual descriptions, the correspondence of gauge invariantoperators between the original and dual theory is deformed. As a result, wenaturally obtain N.Seiberg's N=1 duality. Furthermore, we discuss the origin ofthe meson and superpotential in the dual theory. This approach can be appliedto SU(N), SO(N), and USp(2N) gauge theories, and we analyze all these cases.Comment: 33pages, LaTe
