Abstract:
This article argues in favour of maintaining Consistency
of Exponence (CoE, McCarthy and Prince 1993, 1994) as a
restriction on the Generator function. It argues that a
minimalist theory of input-output relations and faithfulness
follows from these this principle alone. There have been
some recent attacks on CoE as an inviolable principle, but
these can be shown to be unsuccesful; furthermore a substantial
body of the literature taciltly assumes CoE -- it is hard
to formulate some of the key constraints without it. We
explore some of the consequences of CoE, in particular with
respect to the analysis of Derived Environment Effects.
