The Joseph Greenberg Award 2011 (Deadline: January 31st 2011)

The Association for Linguistic Typology's Joseph Greenberg Award recognizes and
honours the best piece of typological research embodied in a doctoral
dissertation or equivalent in 2009-2010. Theses are eligible if they were
accepted by a university between 1 January 2009 and 31 December 2010. The award
will consist of payment of travel, per diem expenses and registration fee to
attend the ALT IX Conference, to be held in Hong Kong, July 21-24, 2011, and to
present a synopsis or element of the prize-winning work as a plenary lecture at
that meeting.

The Joseph Greenberg Award was named to remember Joseph Greenberg's (1915-2001)
fundamental contributions to typology and the interest he showed in encouraging
young researchers. Between 1998 and 2006, it was known as the 'ALT Junior Award'.

To be eligible, those submitting their dissertation must be members of the
Association for Linguistic Typology (ALT). They are asked to submit their
manuscript by email in pdf format, with all non-standard fonts in Unicode, to
the chair of the jury, to arrive no later than January 31st 2011. If this proves
technically difficult, the candidate is asked to discuss the problem with the
chair. A jury, consisting of about ten ALT members, will be appointed by ALT's
president, appropriate to the work submitted.

The chair will be:

Isabelle Bril
Laboratoire LACITO
7, rue Guy Môquet (bât. D)
94801 Villejuif Cedex
