Defective Agree, Case Alternations, and the Prominence of Person -- 8. Prefixes, Scales and Grammatical Theory -- 9. Argument Encoding in Direction Systems and Specificity-Driven Agree -- 10.

The volume advances our understanding of the role of scales and hierarchies across the linguistic sciences. Although scales and hierarchies are widely assumed to play a role in the modelling of linguistic phenomena, their status remains controversial, and it is these controversies that the present volume tackles head-on.
