<p class="gmail-text">The conference aims to provide a forum for linguists and
anthropologists to discuss issues concerning small-scale
multilingualism (Lüpke 2016, Singer & Harris 2016), which is typical
for pre-colonial societies with small socio-political groups. The aim
of the conference is to develop a set of parameters for comparing
different sociolinguistic settings across the world. Topics to be
covered include the (in)equality of languages (egalitarian language
ecology is usually considered to be a feature of areas with high
linguistic diversity), linguistic ideologies, marriage patterns as they
are related to the spread of L2s, the sources of second language
acquisition, the domains where languages are used, the existence of
lingua francas in the context of small-scale societies, and methods for
studying multilingual patterns of the past.

<h3>Submission</h3><h3><font size="2"><span style="font-weight:normal">We welcome abstracts from researchers working on all
areas where high linguistic diversity is attested. We are interested
both in reports on current language ecologies and diachronic studies.
</span></font></h3>
<p class="gmail-text">BA, MA and PhD students are especially encouraged to
apply. We have some additional funds to support students and researchers
from low-income countries. In order to apply for financial support
(max. 1000 euros/applicant), please include a letter of motivation
outlining why it is important for you to participate in the conference,
an explanation why your home institution cannot support your attendance,
and an overview of the expected expenses.</p>
<p class="gmail-text">The conference will consist of oral presentations and a
poster session. Abstract submitters may choose to have their abstract
considered either for a poster only, for a talk only, or for a poster or
a talk.</p>
<h3>Abstracts</h3><h3><font size="2"><span style="font-weight:normal">Abstracts (PDF, 12 point font, max 1 page text + 1 page figures and references) should be submitted to the address <a href="mailto:smallscale.multilingualism@gmail.com">smallscale.multilingualism@gmail.com</a> before December 15, 2018.
