Description - Move α by Howard Lasnik
This contribution to modern syntactic theory elaborates a principles-and-parameters framework in which the differences and similarities among languages with respect to WH-questions can be captured. "Move Alpha" is part of an overall programme, initiated by Noam Chomsky, to create a global theory in which the entire transformational component can be reduced to a single process, Move Alpha. Lasnik and Saito are concerned particularly with bounding requirements on movement (subjacency) and proper government requirements on traces (the empty category principle).
