Move is Occur; the First Step to Eliminate Movement

Che Gyong Im · 2007

This paper is an attempt to reduce the heavy burden caused by the operational mechanism of movement. It is argued in this paper that the driving forces of movement such as Case, EPP or some semantic change can be dissolved without recourse to the Last Resort of moving an element within a phase to another phase; the derivational operation constrained by some mechanical restrictions of Activation Condition, Inclusiveness Condition, and Phase Impenetrability Condition. It is also argued that the notion of occurrence without movement can replace the notion of copy or trace of movement under Multiple Sphere Hypothesis which guarantees the displacement of elements with fully specified in each of the three spheres: θ-sphere, Φ-sphere and `Ω-sphere.
