Call for papers: Emerging Topics in Typology (ETT) 2024
June 10-12, 2024
*** EXTENDED DEADLINE: February 7, 2024 ***

The field of linguistic typology is constantly evolving, driven in part by the work of young researchers. Following on from the success of the 2021 workshop series, Emerging Topics in Typology (ETT), a conference by and for PhD students in diversity linguistics, returns for a second edition in the form of a 3-day conference from June, 10 to 12 2024. The conference will be hosted by Stockholm University in a fully hybrid mode.

We welcome abstracts from current PhD students on a range of topics in diversity linguistics (quantitative and qualitative typology, language documentation and description). Abstracts should be a maximum of 500 words (excluding references). Additional examples and figures (up to one A4 page total) may also be included. Abstracts should demonstrate a link to typological and/or descriptive themes. The abstracts should be submitted via EasyChair (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ett2024) by February 7, 2024. Notification of acceptance will be sent out by March 31, 2024.

Accepted abstracts will be presented at the conference as 20-minute oral presentations, followed by 10 minutes for discussion. Presentations are welcome either on site at Stockholm University or online through Zoom.
