This paper presents a reductionist approach to binding phenomena, which was started in Hornstein (2001). We argue that the binding principle as a grammatical module, for example, like Chomsky’s (1986) definition in (1), should be eliminated along with mysterious concepts like government, and that some binding effects can be dealt with a copy theory of movement in the spirit of minimalism. In particular, it is argued that Principle A effects are A­chain dependency, and that Principle B effects are derived from A'­ or sideward movement chain, followed by A­chain. Thus, the distributional complementarity between anaphors and pronouns can be easily accounted for. This kind of approach to binding phenomena provides us with a new perspective on the pronominal DPs, because they are not lexical items from the numeration, but grammatical formatives from movement operations. In other words, they are morphological allomorphs of a copy of the antecedent, susceptible to universal or language­specific spellout rule.
