Resumo

O presente artigo é uma reavaliação dos argumentos empíricos e teóricos apresentados por algumas das principais contas minimalistas para vinculação. Alguns se esses relatos assumem que os princípios de ligação são condições nas representações LF, outros argumentam que eles são derivados por cálculos de sintaxe restrita. Apesar disso, apresento algumas observações indicando que ainda não existe uma explicação minimalista satisfatória para a vinculação. A evidência acumulada indica que a ligação é derivacional. No entanto, a pragmática também parece engajada na construção da co-referencialidade.
