 | | Government and Binding is a linguistic theory of syntax which was developed mainly by Noam Chomsky (1981, 1982, 1986). |
 | | This theory continues on from his earlier transformational grammar (1957, 1965) and was later revised by Chomsky's new theory: The Minimalist Program (1993). |
 | | It is somewhat of a misnomer as Government and Binding theories only form a small part of the whole - it is also known, more appropriately, as Principles and Parameters. |
