Meeting Description:

The focus of attention of the 2nd International Conference of the Sociolinguistics of Immigration is on the epistemological and methodological continuities and discontinuities in the sociolinguistics of immigration. Several new researches and approaches have begun to emerge in the last few years: translingualism, polylanguaging, truncated repertoires, crossing, metrolingualism.

Two main processes have contributed to this change: the epistemological orientation towards postmodernist and critical social theories within sociolinguistics as well as applied linguistics, linguistic anthropology and related disciplines and globalization.

The aim is to explore these research orientations, whilst also aiming to critically discuss these and any (dis)continuities and/or potential links between ''old'' and ''new'' orientations.

Call for Papers:

Each abstract should not exceed 500 words (incl. at least four keywords and references). Text should be justified and single-spaced (font size: Times New Roman 12pt). Name, affiliation, and email address should be on separate first page of the electronic copy.

Abstracts can be submitted from October 20, 2015 until December 20, 2015 and sent as a word attachment to gerardo.mazzaferro at unito.it. Confirmation of acceptance will be notified via email by 20 January 2016. 

Every individual presentation will last 20 minutes (plus 10 minutes for discussion and questions).
