Meeting Description:

The international conference ''Linguistic Forum 2021: Language policy and
language preservation'' will be held at the Institute of Linguistics, RAS, on
November 11-13, 2021. The conference is part of a series of annual linguistic
forums initiated by the Institute of Linguistics RAS in 2019, each dedicated
to a socially important aspect of the scientific study of language. The 2019
forum took as its topic the UN Year of Indigenous Languages. The 2020 forum
''Language and Artificial Intelligence'' was devoted to interdisciplinary
dialogue among researchers working at the interface of linguistics and
computer science. The topic of the 2021 forum is suggested by the growing
attention of society and governments to language policy and particularly to
the problem of language preservation. The starting point of the 2021 forum is
the International Decade of Indigenous languages, announced by the UN for
2022-2032, as well as the Program for the preservation and revitalization of
the languages of Russia, proposed by the Institute of Linguistics in
connection with the International Decade.


Call for Papers: 

The forum program will include papers addressing language policy, particularly
the problems of the preservation of linguistic diversity, the preservation and
extension of functional styles and domains of language use. Particular
attention will be given to practical aspects of language preservation in
specific linguistic communities, including the work of language activists. The
forum will mostly address languages of Russia, but papers dealing with other
languages are welcome as well.

The priorities of the forum do not include papers that describe linguistic or
sociolinguistic phenomena without a clear connection to language policy and
the preservation of linguistic diversity.

The working languages of the conference are Russian and English.

Please submit anonymous abstracts at lingforum at iling-ran.ru by August 1, 2021,
simultaneously in both .doc and .pdf formats. An abstract should not exceed
one page of text; the second page may be used for illustrative material and a
list of references. Abstracts should not include the authors’ names, their
affiliations, e-mails and phone numbers; all this information must be included
in the body of the message. The forum’s Program Committee will review the
abstracts and select the most substantial and relevant papers. 

It will be decided later whether the forum will be held on-site or on-line. In
the case of the on-site mode, a modest participation fee will be charged; its
size will depend on available funding. 

Important dates: 
August 1, 2021 – deadline for the submission of abstracts;
September 15, 2021 – decisions on paper acceptance are sent out;
October 15, 2021 – publication of the preliminary program;
November 11-13, 2021 – the forum.
