Meeting Description:

The specific emphasis of the conference on disrupting and recreating beliefs
in language studies encourages new directions in research through
interdisciplinary junctures that are fruitful and opportune. The conference
will explore various facets of language and how one’s beliefs are disrupted
and recreated by language or how one’s beliefs disrupt and recreate language.
We view language as both shaping and being shaped by historical, political,
social, and cultural contexts. Research on language from such perspectives has
historically been marginalized as well as compartmentalized within
artificially constructed academic disciplines. As such, a main objective of
the conference is to bridge these arbitrary disciplinary territories and
provide a forum for both theoretical and empirical research, from existing and
emergent research methodologies, for exploring the relationships among
language, power, discourses, and social practices.


Call for Papers:

The International Society for Language Studies, co-organized and hosted by The
Open University of Hong Kong, will hold a conference from June 20-22, 2019 at
The Open University of Hong Kong's campus. The theme of the conference will be
“Disrupting and Recreating Beliefs in Language Studies.” The paper proposal
submission will be open on June 29 and will conclude on November 30, 2018.
Submissions will not be accepted after the November 30 deadline. Notification
of proposal acceptance or rejection will be sent by January 15, 2019. All
presenters who have not registered for the conference by February 28, 2019
will not be scheduled in the conference program. Selected conference papers
will be published in a special issue of Critical Inquiry in Language Studies:
An International Journal or in the Readings in Language Studies peer-reviewed
book series in 2020. Both publication opportunities are peer-reviewed.

About the Theme:

The conference will bring together Hong Kong and global scholars in language
studies, national and international administrators and language program
directors, graduate students, educators, and practitioners. We are proud that
Hong Kong has been chosen as the location for this international conference,
with its multilingual and cosmopolitan community. Bringing the International
Society for Language Studies to Hong Kong provides a unique opportunity to
showcase innovative research not only in Hong Kong, but across the world.
