MEETING DESCRIPTION: The aim of this symposium is to bring together
scholars who are interested in how language ideologies and attitudes are
constructed in multilingual or language contact settings, and how they may
create unequal relations of power. We would like to discuss the
methodological tools to access and analyze the processes and outcomes of
language ideologies and attitudes in multilingual/contact settings. We
welcome contributions that deal with any aspect of ideologies, attitudes
and power in language contact settings (especially, but not limited to,
multilingual settings involving Romance Language varieties).



Examples of relevant aspects:

- How do we identify adequate tools and methodologies to analyze
identities, ideologies and power relations?

- What is the role of language ideologies and attitudes in the (unequal)
distribution of power within a society/community?

- How are language ideologies interrelated with minority/majority
identities and issues?

- How are power asymmetries reflected on languages in multilingual/contact
settings?

- How are power relations enacted in, by, and through language in such
settings?

- How do language sciences contribute to the formation of languages
ideologies, attitudes, and identities?


This symposium aims to challenge existing methodologies and theories, and
to bring new ideas to address the possible outcomes of language ideologies
and attitudes in multilingual settings. This meeting will yield new
perspectives to further develop the field of language ideologies and
attitudes and understand better how they are tied to power relations.
