The analysis of the noun phrase as a determiner phrase, a
functional projection of the determiner, permits a more accurate
description of various phenomena of noun phrase syntax. The present
volume takes a look at German with a view to providing new impulses
for DP analysis by examining constituent shift within DPs and in
positions external to the DP. Constraints such as complex
noun-phrase constraint or nominative island condition are traced to
the interplay between barriers in Chomsky's sense of the term and
the DP structure, thus providing an explanation for shift options
and movement constraints operative in German.
