Phase Theory is the latest empirical and conceptual innovation in
syntactic theory within the Chomskyan generative tradition.
Adopting a cross-linguistic perspective, this book provides an
introduction to Phase Theory, tracing the development of phases in
minimalist syntax. It reviews both empirical and theoretical
arguments in favor of phases, and examines the role phases play at
the interface with semantics and phonology. Analyzing current
phasehood diagnostics, it applies them in a systematic fashion to a
broad range of syntactic categories, both phases and non-phases. It
concludes with a discussion of some of the more contentious issues
in Phase Theory, involving cross-linguistic variation with respect
to phasehood and the dynamic versus static nature of phases.
