Meeting Description:

As discourses about language, language ideologies have been increasingly
studied for 40 years now. Following the influential text by Silverstein (1979)
and the anthologies by Schieffelin, Woolard & Kroskrity (1998) and Blommaert
(1999), numerous empirical studies have emerged that examine “the sum of all
values with which linguistic reality is discursively constructed by social
actors” (Spitzmüller 2013: 264).

We take the development of the research field “from a marginalized topic to an
issue of central concern” (Kroskrity 2004: 501) as an opportunity to
conceptualize language ideology in transition, and to relate this to both the
research object and the research field as a whole:

- On a theoretical level: The research fields of language ideologies and
language attitudes are sometimes used synonymously, sometimes conceived as
distinct from each other (e.g. Hüning 2013; Cuonz & Studler 2014; Morek 2018;
Scarvaglieri 2018; Dürscheid & Schneider 2019; Wiese 2015). Can the
demarcation between the two fields be justified by their emergence in
different disciplines (social psychology, sociolinguistics, language
anthropology) and different methodological approaches (qualitative vs.
quantitative or focus on (micro-) interactions vs. on (macro-) power
relations), or can other clear distinguishing criteria be identified? 

- At the empirical-methodological level: How can language ideologies be
studied? Qualitative research has so far favored interviews (Liebscher &
Dailey-O’Cain 2009; König 2014; Truan & Oldani 2021) and language biographies
(Busch 2016), while quantitative studies usually use questionnaires (Duchêne,
Humbert & Coray 2018; Vogl 2018). What new (digital or corpus linguistic)
methods (Vessey 2017) can be used to shed light on the tension between
qualitative and quantitative methods? Long-term studies of changing language
ideologies allow for new perspectives on the field (Woolard 2011), but are
still underrepresented. What tools can the linguistics community develop to
capture such changes more systematically?

- On a thematic level: For which other areas and questions beyond standard
language ideologies is the research area suitable? To what extent can language
ideologies be better described and analyzed in terms of clusters or “language
ideological assemblages” (Kroskrity 2018: 2)?

- At the level of application: What is the applicability of language ideology
research? Studies in the fields of minority language policy and (foreign)
language didactics (Davies & Langer 2014; Ruck 2020) have shown that targeted
interventions can indeed lead to a change from standard language ideologies to
more acceptance of language variation (Wiese et al. 2015). How and in which
(further) areas can qualitative findings in particular be made more useful?
