jointly organized by the Institute of Modern Linguistic Research of the Moscow
State Pedagogical University and the Institute of Linguistics of the Russian
Academy of Sciences will be held in Moscow on 12-14 October 2016.

The conference focuses on issues of cross-linguistic diversity and unity in
morphology, syntax and their interfaces approached from a variety of
theoretical perspectives, formalist and functionalist alike.

As a special session of the conference “Typology of Morphosyntactic Parameters
2016” the 4th Conference on General, Nordic and Slavic linguistics for
undergraduate and doctoral students (GeNSLing 2016) will be held on October
12–14 2016. The details of this session will be announced separately.

Anton Zimmerling (Institute for Modern Linguistic Research, MSPU / Institute
of Linguistics, Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow)
Ekaterina Lyutikova (Lomonosov Moscow State University / Institute for Modern
Linguistic Research, MSPU Moscow)
Yakov Testelets (Institute of Linguistics, Russian Academy of Sciences /
Russian State University for the Humanities, MSPU Moscow)
Peter Arkadiev (Institute of Slavic Studies, Russian Academy of Sciences /
Russian State University for the Humanities / Institute for Modern Linguistic
Research, MSPU Moscow)

Call for Papers:

The deadline for abstract submission is 29 May 2016.

Priority will be given to paper proposals discussing the interaction of
morphological and syntactic mechanisms, interfaces between syntax, prosody and
information structure and showing the interplay of general, type-specific and
language-specific morphological and syntactic features through the detailed
analysis of world’s languages. Submissions will be rated by experts and
selected by the organizing committee. 

Undergraduate and doctoral students may submit abstracts for both TMP 2016 and
GeNSLing 2016, depending on the topic; one person may only submit one
single-authored and one co-authored abstract. 

Anonymous abstracts (no less than 1 page, no more than 2 pages, with 12 points
font, 1 point spacing, all margins 2,5 cm) in DOC and PDF formats should be
sent to the following email address: 2016tmp at gmail.com. Abstracts violating
these requirements will not be considered.

The author’s or authors’ first and second names, affiliation, email and
contact phone number should be specified in the body of the email, not in the
text of the abstract.

The organizing committee is currently looking for funding for the conference;
the introduction of a moderate conference fee for participants and attendants
is not excluded.
