Uralic languages working in different paradigms could exchange ideas and
discuss their research and data. The talks at the previous SOUL conferences
have covered a wide range of topics in both synchronic and diachronic
(morpho)syntax in all branches of the Uralic language family, and presented empirical
evidence and analyses in both formal and functional frameworks. We believe that
bringing together scholars who apply different approaches to comparable data
will lead to a fruitful dialogue and mutual enrichment. Programs of the
previous three conferences can be found here:</span></p>
