Subject Extraction
In many languages of the world, the extraction (e.g. questioning or relativization) of subjects behaves differently from that of non-subject arguments. The papers in this collection contribute to our understanding of the cross-linguistic landscape of subject extraction asymmetries, their theory, and implications.
