The Minimalist Program for linguistic theory is Noam Chomsky's
boldest and most radical version of his naturalistic approach to
language. Cedric Boeckz examines its foundations, explains its
underlying philosophy, exemplifies its methods, and considers the
significance of its empirical results. He explores the roots and
antecedents of the Program and shows how its methodologies parallel
those of sciences such as physics and biology. He disentangles and
clarifies current debates and issues around the nature of
minimalist research in linguistics and shows how the aims and
ambitions of the Minimalist Program lie at the centre of the
enterprise to understand how the human language faculty operates in
the mind and is manifested in the world's languages. Professor
Boeckx writes for advanced and graduate students of linguistics and
for all those, in fields such as cognitive science and evolutionary
biology, who want to know more about current developments in
theoretical linguistics.
