Lee, Eun-Kyeong. “A Reconsideration of Asymmetrical English Coordination.” Studies in English Language & Literature. 39.3 (2013): 169-187. This paper sheds new light on how to explain the coordination asymmetry contingent on various syntactic standards. It is argued that the mirror-imaged coordination structure by building up the two separate criteria is accordingly driven: One is for binding, possessive with extraposition, substitution and insertion and the other is for Case, subcategorization and agreement. It follows in the flexible manner that while coordinator & is paired as one unit with the first conjunct for some occasions, coordinator & is combined with the second one for others. Thus, I propose that the former is under strong influence from head (T,V,P)'s locality and the latter is involved with the parametric conditions. Consequently, it is a reflection that the first-pair unit can be another potential configuration of the second-pair unit, which is caused by the head & parameter. (Chonbuk National University)
