review text: [For part I, cf. the review above.] This paper is devoted to the dynamical considerations at semiclassical level. The concept of the classical space-time is formulated as a length- scale-dependent notion starting from the idea that particles correspond to topological inhomogeneities pointlike in the length scale considered. A semiclassical description of matter using Einstein-Yang-Mills-type effective action is studied. The requirement that effective action reproduces Maxwell electrodynamics at long length scales is shown to lead to a rather deep revision of the basic ideas concerning the description of electroweak and color interactions.
