Since the launching of Language and Linguistics (henceforth L&L) in 2000,
there has been a steady increase of both the submission and publication rate.
In order to accommodate this large increase while trying to augment L&L’s
academic visibility, there will be a change of L&L’s editorial policy starting
from July 1, 2013. Instead of being headed by an Editor-in-Chief and an
Executive Editor, the new editorial task force will consist of an
Editor-in-Chief and three Associate Editors. We are extremely honored that
Professor C.-C. Jane Tang, Professor Thomas Hun-Tak Lee, Professor Henry Y.
Chang and Professor Pei-chuan Wei have kindly agreed to become the new
editorial team to provide valuable support regarding the overall academic
development of the journal and the monographs series.

Below, a short bio of the Editor-in-Chief and the three Associate Editors:

Professor C.-C. Jane Tang (Editor-in-Chief) received her Ph.D from Cornell
University and is a Research Fellow at the Institute of Linguistics, Academia
Sinica. Her research interests lie in Chinese linguistics, Austronesian
linguistics, typology and formal syntax.

Professor Thomas Hun-Tak Lee (Associate Editor) received his Ph.D from UCLA.
He is a professor at the Department of Linguistics and Modern Languages at the
Chinese University of Hong Kong and the Associate Dean of Arts. His research
interests lie in language acquisition and syntax/semantics, with particular
reference to issues of learnability and the first language acquisition of
Cantonese and Mandarin.

Professor Henry Y. Chang (Associate Editor) received his Ph.D from National
Tsing Hua University. He is an Associate Research Fellow at the Institute of
Linguistics, Academia Sinica. His research interests lie in Austronesian
linguistics, syntax and semantics.

Professor Pei-chuan Wei (Associate Editor) received his Ph.D from National
Taiwan University. He is a Research Fellow at the Institute of Linguistics,
Academia Sinica. His research interests lie in Historical linguistics and
language archive.

With the help of the new editorial team, we believe L&L, included in the SSCI
citation index since 2007, is ready to face and conquer more challenges while
developing more academic visibility undeservedly underscored so far.

L&L is an international journal which publishes research in general or
theoretical linguistics on languages of East Asia and the Pacific Region, thus
encompassing Sino-Tibetan, Austronesian, Austroasiatic and Altaic language
families, inter alia. Contributions may be in the form of original research
articles, squibs or book reviews.
