Abstract:
This paper provides an assessment of John Hawkins’s (2004; 2014) programme of explaining cross-linguistic regularities in terms of functional-adaptive principles of efficient information processing. In the first part of the paper, I systematize how such principles may possibly affect the diachronic development of languages, and I argue that evidence for efficient coding can be obtained primarily from the ac- tualization process, rather than the innovation stage that is at the focus of purely source-based approaches to explaining universals. In the second part of the paper, I present a small case study on a specific prediction made in Hawkins (2014), con- cerning the typology and diachrony of article morphemes. This will allow us to carve out both strengths and weaknesses of Hawkins’s programme in its current manifestation. ...
