Abstract:

The Linguistic Variation Yearbook is exclusively devoted to the study ofthe nature and scope of linguistic variation from the point of view of theminimalist program. In this perspective, the yearbook aims at going beyondthe traditional tension between explanatory and descriptive adequacy. Itseeks in particular to investigate to what extent the study of linguisticvariation can shed light on the broader issue of language particular vs.language universal properties and design.The Linguistic Variation Yearbook publishes annually a collection of(invited) articles on a theme that is current in and important to theresearch on linguistic variation within the generative framework. The focusis on comparative studies, such as research on typology and dialect variation.
