This book offers a comprehensive overview of the syntactic
variation of the dialects of Spanish. More precisely, it covers
Spanish theoretical syntax that takes as its data source
non-standard grammatical phenomena. Approaching the syntactic
variation of Spanish dialects opens a door not only to the
intricacies of the language, but also to a set of challenges of
linguistic theory itself, including language variation, language
contact, bilingualism, and diglossia. The volume is divided into
two main sections, the first focusing on Iberian Spanish and the
second on Latin American Spanish. Chapters cover a wide range of
syntactic constructions and phenomena, such as clitics, agreement,
subordination, differential object marking, expletives,
predication, doubling, word order, and subjects. This volume
constitutes a milestone in the study of syntactic variation,
setting the stage for future work not only in vernacular Spanish,
but all languages.
