The aim of the present inquiry lies in examining syntactic positions that non-finite relative constructions are able to relativize, that is, their accessibility of relativization. The range of relativizable positions in non-finite constructions is confronted with that of the finite relatives. The confrontation of two structurally differing strategies, non-finite (NFR) and finite relativization (FR) entails the task of introducing a unified system of reference and to legitimate the clausal identity of the both relative constructions on the basis of an all-inclusive definition of relative clause (RC).
