[Lingtyp] Cross-linguistic research on "binding" domains and the (non)complementarilty of pronouns and reflexives

[Timur Maisak]

Thank you, Peter!
I think this recent overview can also be added to the list of relevant
works:

Ganenkov, Dmitry, and Natalia Bogomolova, 'Binding and Indexicality in the
Caucasus', in Maria Polinsky (ed.), *The Oxford Handbook of Languages of
the Caucasus*, Oxford Handbooks (2021; online edn, Oxford Academic, 13 Jan.
2021),

2024.

Best,
Timur Maisak
