在经济学和语义解释中，Danny Fox研究了优化（经济学）原则与语法和语义之间的接口的相关性。Fox支持语法受经济因素限制的观点，他认为各种经济条件限制了“隐蔽”操作的应用。除其他外，他认为，不影响音系的句法操作，除非影响句子的语义解释，否则不能适用。这种立场对语法结构有许多影响。例如，它建议需要修改模块化假设，根据该假设，语言的语法必须独立于其语义进行表征。另一个结果涉及对语法派生中解释的各种约束究竟适用于何处这一问题的新答案。语言探究专著第35号与麻省理工学院语言学系列工作论文共同出版。
In Economy and Semantic Interpretation, Danny Fox investigates the relevance of principles of optimization (economy) to the interface between syntax and semantics. Supporting the view that grammar is restricted by economy considerations, Fox argues for various economy conditions that constrain the application of "covert" operations. Among other things, he argues that syntactic operations that do not affect phonology cannot apply unless they affect the semantic interpretation of a sentence. This position has a number of consequences for the architecture of grammar. For example, it suggests that the modularity assumption, according to which a language's syntax must be characterized independently of its semantics, needs to be revised. Another consequence concerns new answers to the question of exactly where in the syntactic derivation the various constraints on interpretation apply.Linguistic Inquiry Monograph No. 35Copublished with the MIT Working Papers in Linguistics series.
