	This volume brings together leading experts in the field to explore
key issues in current morphology and the interactions of morphology
with phonology and syntax. Included here are papers on compounding,
argument structure, voice systems, agreement marking, movement of
constituents in compounds and derived forms, haplology, affix
realization, stem selection and allomorphy, levels in
phonology-morphology interactions, and nonisomorphism across
grammatical components. These topics are considered from a variety of
theoretical perspectives, among them the theory of Lexical Conceptual
Structure, the Principles and Parameters framework, Lexical Functional
Grammar, Autolexical Syntax, Optimality Theory, Distributed Morphology,
Paradigm-Based Realizational Morphology, and the theory of
Cophonologies. This volume, derived from a conference, also contains
commentaries on the papers as well as edited transcripts of the
discussion sessions following the formal presentations.
