Abstract
In this paper I have argued for two main points: (1) that IHRCs have at S-structure phonologically null heads which are coindexed with a nominal inside the modifying clause that is interpreted as the head; and (2) that at LF the nominal interpreted as the head has been raised from the modifying clause into head position. Evidence for the proposed S-structure is based on anomalies in the distribution of IHRCs cross-linguistically, and on the implications of the proposed structure for subjacency in the Quechua languages. IHRCs also provide the basis for an argument that in at least some languages both precedence and command are relevant to binding.
