      ABSTRACT = {The aim of this paper is to show that current HPSG binding theory (and similarly other binding approaches encoding asymmetries explicitly) is inadequate with regard to describing binding variabilities in local binding contexts. This inadequacy stems mainly from the usage of too restrictive and order-independent obliqueness-based hierarchies as constraints on possible binders and bindees. We propose binding constraints to be directly implemented as path equations/path inequations in thematic relation sorts. This allows a more fine-grained description of local binding symmetries and asymmetries via a modular interplay of general binding constraints on thematic arguments together with linear precedence constraints on certain anaphoric elements.},
