Local Modelling of Non-local Dependencies in Syntax / Artemis Alexiadou, Tibor Kiss, Gereon Müller (Eds.)

Syntactic dependencies like movement, reflexivization, agreement, control, deletion, case assignment and binding can be non-local, crossing a clause boundary. A strategy pursued in many contemporary theories is to model cases of non-local dependencies in a local way, by successively passing on infor...
