The authors investigate MLC effects in domains such as Stylistic Fronting, multiple wh-questions, double object constructions and transitives in ergative languages. Among the conceptual issues raised by the authors is the role of MLC at the interface between syntax proper and other grammatical modules (e.g. phonology), and the question whether MLC is a principle in its own right or its effects may be
