Dear Discourseanalysis.net user,

You can now submit panel proposals for the 3rd DiscourseNet Congress
co-organised with the Latin American Discourse Studies Association ALED!
DNC3 ALED will take place from 11-14/09/2019 in Paris ("Knowledge and Power
in a Polycentric World: discourses across languages, cultures and space").
It will be open to discourse researchers from the social sciences and
humanities and we welcome submissions in all languages. You can find the
calls of proposals in French, English, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian
at http://dnc3aled.discourseanalysis.net (NB: there may be temporary
disruptions with the webpage because of a move).

If you want to make a panel proposal  for DNC3ALED, we suggest you get in
touch with your friends and colleagues now. All panel participants will
need to submit their abstracts on the webpage individually before the
registration deadline (30/09/2018) including a note of the panel name and
panel leader(s). The panel leaders will then send an email to
contact at discourseanalyis.net with the following information: proposed panel
title, name(s) of panel leader(s) including contact email, list of people
who have submitted paper proposals with paper titles, the choice of
language. Proposals for presentations can be made in any language and for a
language to be accepted as a conference language we will need at least ten
accepted proposals, which will form a language stream. A panel will
normally be held in one language and no more than two. Every panelist will
have to make special efforts to communicate with non-native speakers
(including multi-lingual powerpoint presentations etc.). All abst
 racts will be reviewed individually and we will be happy to form panels
from accepted contributions.

We would be very happy to see you in Paris! Please feel free to point this
possibiliy out to your colleagues. If you have questions, please write to
dnc3aled at gmail.com.

Kind regards, cordialement, herzliche Grüße, un saludo, um abraço, с
уважением,

The organizers
The legitimacy of "Europe" and "the West" as identifiable territorial and
imagined entities is in crisis.
The awareness has grown of a world becoming more polycentric. At the same
time, the field of
Discourse Studies is growing at a dazzling rate across the globe. Discourse
Studies is known for
theoretical orientations and methodological tools that account for meaning
production as a social
practice mobilizing languages, media and technologies. It is thus uniquely
placed to observe and
analyse the shifting conceptions of a post-colonial, post-Eurocentric,
post-west-and-the-rest world.
The different understandings of the intersection of language and society,
in the range of specific
schools, theories and approaches within Discourse Studies promise to
inspire conflicting analyses of
the world today.

The focus of Discourse Studies also varies according to the specific
national or regional contexts in
which issues of power and language, subjectivity and inequality, language
and context are being
problematized. For instance, Anglophone, French-, German-, Spanish-,
Portuguese-, and Russian-speaking
communities of discourse analysts and theorists are marked by dynamic
debates, terminologies and approaches that are not always well known
outside each language community.

The third DiscourseNet Congress, which is co-organized with ALED, aims to
be a site of dialogue and
reflection across and about different linguistic and national traditions in
Discourse Studies.
DiscourseNet (https://www.discourseanalysis.net) is an interdisciplinary
network of discourse
researchers who have organized more than 25 events in Europe over the past
ten years. The
Asociación LatinoAmericana de Estudios del Discurso (www.comunidadaled.org)
was formed in
1995 to promote the development of Discourse Studies in Latin America. ALED
has organised 12
International Congresses and about 11 national events for each country
member. A joint initiative of
DiscourseNet and ALED, DNC3 - ALED invites specific approaches to shifting
conceptions of, for
instance, “Europe”, “the global South”, “the West”... Within the
overarching frame of our
contemporary entangled world, we invite discourse analysts from around the
world to take stock of
contemporary developments in Discourse Studies.

DNC3 - ALED
● is open to discourse researchers from all disciplines,
● welcomes presentations in the many languages in which discourse research
is being done
today,
● aims to create and develop non-hierarchical and open spaces for dialogue
and exchange.
Submissions

We welcome papers which re-examine existing discourse theoretical
frameworks, articulate new
approaches from different fields and schools, study social phenomena
empirically and reflect on the
critical potential of Discourse Studies. We also invite contributions that
deal with theoretical and/or
methodological challenges in Discourse Studies, preferably with a focus on
the nexus of knowledge
and power.

Researchers may focus on a wide variety of topics. We encourage
contributions that seek to develop
novel approaches to, for instance: subjectivity in contemporary society,
discursive epistemology,
indexicality, ideology, knowledge and hegemony, governmentality in the
knowledge economy,
protest and activism, materiality of/and discourse, critique and
reflexivity, bi-, multi- and translingual
communication, language policy, discourse and gender, class, migration,
racism, populism, (neo-
)fascism, discrimination, argumentation and rhetorics, social cognition,
institutional discourse,
workplace communication, practices and identities in the workplace,
multimodal interaction and
discourse analysis, online media formats and digital culture, materialism
and discourse, digital
humanities, cross-cultural interaction, multimodality, corpus and
computer-aided analysis,
conversation and interaction...

At DNC3 - ALED includes three formats:
1) Individual paper presentations (20 minutes presentation plus 10 minutes
discussion)
2) Panel sessions (usually 60 - 90 minutes on one theme). We also welcome
suggestions for
roundtables, workshops or more unconventional panel presentations. Please
specify the
form in your abstract.
3) An ad-hoc “unconference” will be organized on one afternoon. The
sessions are not planned
in advance. Instead, all participants will have the opportunity to put
sessions on the agenda
during the congress itself. Participants may suggest topics, methods,
theories, questions,
problems, etc. No preparation necessary. For more information about the
unconference
