Meeting Description:

This conference is conceived of as an accessible new forum for cutting-edge
sociolinguistic research. It is open to a broad range of sociolinguistics
researchers, including those working outside the Anglo-Western sociolinguistic
tradition, who address the varying and rapidly changing modes of linguistic
interactions in the highly diverse world of today. Following two realizations
in Budapest, the event is now moving to another of the major Central European
capitals, Prague. Coming from the European context, we are highly aware of the
importance of perspectives from different corners of the world, including
those not usually heard from.

The main themes of the conference are diversities, new media and language
management. They reflect the most visible trends from both global and local
perspectives: evolving diversity and the omnipresence of the new media in the
contemporary social world. The dynamic character of diversity in contemporary
societies may lead us to be more sensitive to the management of language and
communication we are doing on an everyday basis, and make us increasingly
reflect our language use and communication practices overall. New media and
their various genres represent spaces where we can very quickly and easily
reflect upon language use, and use various modes to do so. Of course, the
management of language and communication has always existed. What has evolved
in recent years is its sociolinguistic analysis, driven, among others, by the
changes continually happening around us. 

Considering the wide range of research traditions and theoretical frameworks
used in sociolinguistic research around the world, we invite contributions
that address both the topics addressed above and all other relevant topics
from any area of sociolinguistics.


Call for Papers:

Abstract Submission

We invite abstract submissions for the following types of contributions:

1. Paper presentations
Paper presentations will be allocated 20 minutes plus 10 minutes for
discussion.

2. Posters
Poster presentations will be allocated their own time slot during the
conference. No printed posters will be presented; they will be displayed on
digital screens.

3. Panels
Panel convenors are asked to separately collect 4-7 panel paper abstracts,
find a discussant and write a panel introduction before submitting the full
panel package to ICS.3. Panel papers and the discussant’s contribution will be
allocated 20 minutes, plus 10 minutes for discussion after each paper; the
discussant’s contribution may be shorter, leaving more time for discussion.

Abstracts for general session papers, poster session papers and panel papers,
created in doc, docx or rtf format and consisting of max. 300 words excluding
references, and 3-5 keywords should be submitted via the conference’s online
application (https://system.amca.cz/index.php/registration_active/ics3) by
October 31, 2019. Abstracts should include information on the theoretical
framework, research questions, data and methods and summarize the main
findings. The selection of papers for presentation at ICS.3 will be carried
out by the Scientific Committee and the Organizational Committee.

Note on registration:

First authors, poster presenters, panel convenors and other attending
participants must register for the conference. Each participant may submit
only one abstract as the first or sole author, but can be a second, or
subsequent, co-author of another paper or papers.
