Approaches to Phonological Complexity
*Ed. by Pellegrino, François / Marsico, Egidio / Chitoran, Ioana / 
Coupé, Christophe*

Complexity approaches, developed in physics and biology for almost two 
decades, show today a huge potential for investigating challenging 
issues in Humanities and Cognitive Sciences and obviously in the study 
of language(s). Theoretical approaches that integrate self-organization, 
emergence, non linearity, adaptive systems, information theory, etc., 
have already been developed to provide a unifying framework that sheds 
new light on the duality between linguistic diversity on the one hand 
and unique cognitive capacity of language processing on the other hand. 
Nevertheless, most of the linguistics literature written in this 
framework focuses on the syntactic level addressed through computational 
complexity or performance optimization, while other linguistic 
components have been somewhat neglected.
In this context, the proposed volume draws on an interdisciplinary 
sketch of the phonetics-phonology interface in the light of complexity. 
Composed of several first-order contributions, it will consequently be a 
significant landmark at the time of the rise of several projects linking 
complexity and linguistics around the world.
