  abstract  = {This chapter provides a typological and theoretical overview of the phenomena of agreement and concord, both of which involve morphological covariance between elements. We take the canonical instance of agreement to involve covariance between a verbal element and its arguments, and we discuss the empirical landscape ranging from this core case to more complex and marginal instances of agreement. We focus particularly on empirical observations that have figured prominently in the theoretical literature on agreement, including hierarchy effects, case discrimination, and long-distance agreement. We also provide an overview of the theoretical treatment of agreement via the operation Agree, noting some key developments in the conception of this operation in recent years. We then turn to a discussion of concord, which we take to involve covariance between elements within a nominal phrase in the canonical instance. We discuss some theoretically important empirical patterns, including systems of mixed concord, and compare Agree-based and non-Agree-based theoretical treatments of concord. We evaluate the empirical coverage of these models and note some open empirical and theoretical issues.},
