The methodological and analytical approach used in the early research of Japanese dialectology had its roots in the particular socio-historical context of the region and established its own unique foundations. Meeting in Tokyo in 2012 allows NWAV ASIA-PACIFIC to highlight and re-acknowledge the long and rich history of research on language variation and change in this region, which has often been overlooked in the field of sociolinguistics. The conference will also continue the tradition established at NWAV-AP1 of showcasing the innovative, descriptive, philological, historical, and socially informed research being conducted by emerging and established scholars in some of the world's most fertile arenas of language and dialect contact.

Paper presentations will be given 20 minutes each, with a 5-minute question-and-answer period. Posters will be presented on the evening of Friday, August 3rd, in connection with a reception. Posters are typically a good format for presentations where visual display of tables, graphs, maps, etc. is particularly important.
