  We construct a low-energy effective field theory that permits the complete
treatment of isospin-breaking effects in nonleptonic weak interactions to
next-to-leading order. To this end, we enlarge the chiral Lagrangian describing
strong and Delta S=1 weak interactions by including electromagnetic terms with
the photon as additional dynamical degree of freedom. The complete and minimal
list of local terms at next-to-leading order is given. We perform the one-loop
renormalization at the level of the generating functional and specialize to K
-> pi pi decays.
