This is the first part of a two‐part article that reviews a number of the current debates regarding raising and control constructions. The issues addressed in this part include the syntactic attributes governing their distribution, the characterization of the relevant silent elements, and the empirical properties that may distinguish/unify the two classes of constructions (on either syntactic or semantic grounds).
