The primary aim of this volume is to initiate cooperation between internationally renowned generative and variationist linguists with a view to developing an innovative and more cohesive approach to syntactic variation. The present volume contains treatments incorporating the analysis of external factors into accounts focusing on the internal linguistic conditioning of syntactic variation and change cross-linguistically. As such, it offers novel approaches to three key areas of current linguistic debate, viz. (1) Methodological practices, (2) Theoretical applications and (3) Modularity. The volume is, therefore, an important achievement for the progress of linguistic theory more generally and it is an even more crucial milestone in the coming-of-age of 'Socio-Syntax' as a discipline in its own right. 410 0$aAmsterdam studies in the theory and history of linguistic science.$nSeries IV,$pCurrent issues in linguistic theory ;$vv. 265. 606 $aGrammar, Comparative and general$xSyntax 606 $aLanguage and languages$xVariation 615 0$aGrammar, Comparative and general$xSyntax. 615 0$aLanguage and languages$xVariation. 676 $a415 701 $aCornips$b Leonie Elise Alexandra$01482745 701 $aCorrigan$b Karen P.$f1961-$01090456 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910961260603321 996 $aSyntax and variation$94345554 997 $aUNINA
