Abstract
While the primary goal of this article is to discuss a number of parametric differences in the syntax of clitic climbing (Section 12.2), we preliminarily lay out in Section 12.1 what we tentatively take the syntax of Romance clitics to be. In the final appendix we also suggest that the different orders of clitics in different closely related varieties cannot be directly derived via movement from the canonical Merge position of the corresponding full complements (as the latter are arguably merged in the same structural positions in all varieties while the order of clitics varies substantially among the different varieties).
