[Cadaad] CADAAD2022 Extended Deadline

Tue Dec 21 17:38:26 UTC 2021

*CADAAD2022 Call for Papers *

*DEADLINE EXTENDED!*

We are pleased to announce that the 9^th conference of the *Critical 
Approaches to Discourse Analysis Across Disciplines* (CADAAD), jointly 
organized by the University of Bergamo and Birmingham City University, 
will take place from 6-8 July 2022 and will be hosted by the University 
of Bergamo, Italy.

CADAAD conferences are intended to promote current directions and new 
developments in cross-disciplinary critical discourse research from a 
critical-analytical perspective, deal with contemporary social, 
scientific, political, economic, or professional discourses and genres. 
Whilst we hope to receive abstracts across the usual wide range of 
topics and approaches, we also invite scholars to present papers and 
posters that that engage with this year’s conference theme: *(Critical) 
Discourse Analysis and the (new?) normal. *

Norms, normalities, and normativities have undoubtedly been disturbed in 
recent years. Though ‘normal’ is a local, subjective, and fluid concept, 
norms are fundamental to collective endeavour and social practices and 
have important implications for ideology, power, and, of course, the 
construction of meaning in discourse. Equally, the destabilisation or 
disruption of norms gives rise to contestation over shared social values 
and normativities, as well as opportunities to galvanise new ways of 
being. The need for contemporary discourses to adjust to rapidly 
changing norms makes this an area of particular interest for (critical) 
discourse analysis.

*Plenaries*

We are pleased to announce our plenary speakers:

  * Piotr Cap (University of Łódź)
  * Jonathan Charteris-Black (University of West of England)
  * Massimiliano Demata (University of Turin)
  * *TBC:* Frans van Eemeren (University of Amsterdam)
  * Giuliana Garzone (IULM University)
  * Elena Semino (Lancaster University)

*Submission*

CADAAD2022 welcomes paper, poster, and panel proposals that engage in 
cross-disciplinary critical discourse research and/or that respond in 
some way to the conference theme *Discourse Analysis and the (new?) 
normal*. Alongside submissions engaging with *methodological 
traditions*/, /*advances in (C)DS* and *the theoretical handling of 
‘normativity’ in (C)DS research*, we invite work in discourse analysis 
across any discipline to explore topics and perspectives including, but 
not limited to:
