 *Call for Proposals*

LANSI brings together scholars and students working on naturally-occurring
data within the broad area of language and social interaction. In keeping
with the LANSI spirit of diversity and dialog, we welcome abstracts from
colleagues working on a variety of topics using discourse analytic
approaches that include but are not limited to conversation analysis,
interactional sociolinguistics, linguistic anthropology, and critical
discourse analysis. Abstracts should be no longer than 300 words and should
include descriptions of the following aspects of the study:
(1) problem(s) being addressed; (2) central claim(s); (3) data source(s)
and analytic approach(es); (4) a short piece of data to support the main
argument; (5) implication(s) of the findings. Please also include a 50-word
summary. Abstracts will be blind-reviewed on the basis of clarity,
specificity, originality, and the inclusion of the required components.
Papers will be presented within a 15 or 20-minute slot with an additional
10 or 5 minutes for discussion.

Deadline for electronic submission is May 30, 2014. Notification of
acceptance or non-acceptance will be sent via email by July 15, 2014. For
additional information and to submit an abstract, please visit:
