<p>I would also mention the work done at the University of
Connecticut – Željko Bošković has supervised quite a few
interesting typological dissertations over the last two decades:<br>

<p>For a recent example of Željko's work, see his 2025 article on
multiple wh-fronting (in this LangSci volume:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://langsci-press.org/catalog/book/481">https://langsci-press.org/catalog/book/481</a>).</p>
<p>There's also a very interesting programmatic paper by Željko, on
"Formalism AND, not VS, functionalism", in which he says that the
two approaches are more compatible than is often thought
(published in Belgrade in 2022):

typology class. I was wondering what people thought the most
important works (say top 5-10) in generative typology are in
the past 20 years. In my mind this is mostly dominated by
Mark Baker's work, but I feel this impression might be out
of date. I'd be very interested in PhD theses (or work
derived from these) in particular. </div>
