This paper presents a unified account of opacity effects in both Korean and English Wh-constructions, using Barriers(Chomsky 1986) as a framework. Chapter 2 reviews the Superiority Effect in English along with development and modifications of the ECP. I suggest to revise the ECP and the relevant concepts in the light of the data which raise problems with Chomsky s(l986) proposal. To solve problems with the Barrier s model of ECP, I propose to unify disjunctive definitions of proper government of Head government by introducing Comp-Indexing and Local Binding Condition on Comp. Immediate consequences of this proposal are: we can account for that-trace effects by the ECP without the aid of Minimality, and we can easily dispense with the unmotivated stipulations that Chomsky s (1986) Minimality cannot avoid having. Chapter 3 deals with the distribution of wh-phrases in Korean. Despite a lack of SS movement and a full range of opacity effects, this chapter demonstrates that wh-constructions in Korean are best explained by a movement approach rather than the in-situ analysis. I argue that whconstructions in Korean obey the ECP as in English, while attributing the lack of full productivity in Korean to a choice of Sister-adjunction schema for multiple WR-operators and a lack of func tional category INFL.
