Abstract:

The 'Linguistic Variation Yearbook 2006' is exclusively devoted to the
study of the nature and scope of linguistic variation from the point of
view of the minimalist program. In this perspective, the yearbook aims at
going beyond the traditional tension between explanatory and descriptive
adequacy. It seeks in particular to investigate to what extent the study of
linguistic variation can shed light on the broader issue of language
particular versus language universal properties and design. The  publishes
annually a collection of (invited) articles on a theme that is current in
and important to the research on linguistic variation within the generative
framework. The focus is on comparative studies, such as research on
typology and dialect variation. 



Linguistic Field(s): Linguistic Theories
