Languages vary but this variation is not chaotic. Within the Principles and
Parameters framework, the ''Principles'' are the abstract system that underlie
Universal Grammar, while the ''Parameters'' are the points of possible
variation within this system. While originally conceived as settings that
account for a wide range of linguistic properties (macro-parameters, such as
the pro-drop parameter), parameters have recently been either outright denied
or re-cast as micro-parameters. This workshop aims to highlight current
research on parameters from a broad range of perspectives.
