[Cadaad] CADAAD 2026 - Final call for abstracts

[LAURA FILARDO LLAMAS]

Dear colleagues,

The final deadline for abstracts for CADAAD 2026 in Valladolid is MONDAY 15th DECEMBER.


Venue: Universidad de Valladolid, Spain

Dates: 8-10 July 202

To submit an abstract: https://www.cadaad2026.com/138021/section/59992/cadaad-2026.html

The 2026 edition marks the 20th anniversary of CADAAD. Under the theme Beyond Physical and Symbolic Spaces: Methods and Challenges in Critical Discourse Studies, we invite scholars to reflect on the evolution of the field and the ways in which different methodological schools address the quantitative and qualitative bridge. In times of escalating physical and symbolic conflicts, the increasing influence of social media, the rise of fake news and polarizing attitudes, it is also necessary to reflect on how Critical Discourse Scholars can address those challenges.

The conference theme approaches these challenges broadly, also encompassing issues such as the construction of identity (us/them), space (in/out), time (past/present), politics (in its multiple forms) or society. It also seeks to move beyond traditional academic spaces by fostering interdisciplinary dialogue between scholars and practitioners, and by acknowledging the role of multilingualism.
As on previous CADAAD conferences, we are also happy to see abstracts of discourse analytical work from any field that looks at, among others:

  *   Post/de/anti-Colonialism
  *   Corporate and organisational communication
  *   Culture, cultural studies, and cultural promotion
  *   Education
  *   Environment and environmentalism
  *   Mental or physical health
  *   Gender and sexuality
  *   News and (social) media analysis
  *   Protest and social movements

The conference will be in person only and online or hybrid presentations will not be possible. Papers can be individually or co-presented. Presentations should be no more than 20 minutes. Abstracts for presentations should be 300 words (including references). A small selection of posters will also be accepted.

Kind regards,

Laura
