Meeting Description:

The GLOCAL Conference on Asian Linguistic Anthropology 2021, The fourth GLOCAL
CALA (4), at the University of The Philippines Diliman, Diliman, The
Philippines, symbolizes a significant leap forward for Asian Linguistic
Anthropology, and hence, for Linguistic Anthropology in general, from the
previous highly successful GLOCAL CALA 2018, GLOCAL CALA 2019 and GLOCAL CALA
2020, to further problematize current perspectives and praxis in the field of
Asian Languages, Linguistics, and Society.

The GLOCAL CALA 2021 theme “Symbolism and New Society” describes the need for
symbolic representation in a rapidly changing Asia. As has been the case
throughout a larger global society, Asian societies have sought increasingly
rapid change, seeking none less than online spaces to contextualize and to
legitimize the effects of this rapid change. Here, recent events have patently
mediated the shift to online interaction, a shift which has thus intensified
the development, and possibly, the invention, of new symbolisms and symbolic
clusters that now have limited use in offline spaces.

The GLOCAL CALA 2021 thus calls for renewed awareness and interpretations of
Asian symbolisms in this new era, and asks that we seek new perspectives of
these Asian complex symbolisms, in their global contexts. These
interpretations increase in significance as the use of online virtual texts
and textual modes now assume an authoritative stance over the real world,
creating new realities and new real worlds that subvert ideologies of those
old real worlds. This shift to symbolisms required to make sense of new
virtual and old real worlds in this current era, will surely motivate
dialogue.

We thus welcome you to The GLOCAL CALA 2021, the Fourth Annual Conference on
Asian Linguistic Anthropology, and to the GLOCAL CALA in general.
