The book aims to deduce stipulative properties of binding conditions by reformulating them through a novel movement theory, under the tenet of the Minimalist Program. Integrating the insights of Abe s (2014) pro-movement theory and Higginbotham s (1983) linking theory, it offers a fresh perspective on bound variable anaphora, Binding Conditions A, B and C. Assuming Abe s (2016) Search and Float approach as a general framework, It offers a way to distinguish bound variable anaphora from coreferential anaphora, and to explain strong crossover cases and locality effects such as those induced by the Specified Subject Condition. The book also investigates binding reconstruction effects in parasitic gap constructions and Japanese scrambling to support the proposed movement theory of anaphora. It also deals with backward binding and copy reflexivization, giving support to the A-movement analysis proposed by Hornstein (2001). It The book is essential for those linguists engaging in syntactic theory, anaphora, and the Minimalist Program in offering innovative solutions to and a fresh perspective on binding phenomena.
