3 year project in advanced research training, May 2010-April 2013

Researching multilingualism, multilingualism in research practice (RES 046-25-0004)

New times, new mobilities and communicative practices: 

challenges for minority language research 

Research seminar jointly organised by the MOSAIC Centre for Research on Multilingualism, University of Birmingham and IAITH: the Welsh Centre for 

Language Planning

School of Education, University of Birmingham, May 2-3, 2012

This two day research seminar brings together researchers from Europe and North America who are engaged in sociolinguistic and ethnographic research with speakers of languages that have been historically positioned on the political and economic periphery e.g. Basque, Canadian French, Catalan, Galician, Irish, Sami, Scottish Gaelic and Welsh. The contributors include Monica Heller (University of Toronto), Patricia Lamarre (University of Montreal), Joanna McPake (University of Strathclyde), Sari Pietikainen (University of Jyväskylä) and Joan Pujolar Cos (Open University of Catalonia). The focus will be on the conceptual and methodological challenges posed in the field of minority language research by the large-scale social changes ushered in by globalization, by the advent of new media and communication technology and by shifts in political economy. The study of the new sociolinguistic realities of the times in which we live requires new research lenses and new epistemologies.
