2nd Call for Abstracts: 

The French Phonology Network (Réseau français de phonologie) is launching a
call for papers for its 2016 annual conference. Building on the success of the
conferences organized in Orléans (2010), Tours (2011), Paris (2012), Nantes
(2013), Lille (2014) and Bordeaux (2015), the 2016 edition will take place
from 30 June to 2 July at the Université Nice-Sophia Antipolis, France.

Main session:

Submissions are welcome from linguists working in any school or theoretical
framework. Topics of interest may relate to phonology in general or propose a
phonological analysis of a linguistic phenomenon in a specific language.
Topics may focus on, but are not limited to, signal processing, perception,
acquisition, diachrony, dialectology, formalism, epistemology, descriptive
phonology and all issues which explicitly deal with phonology and its
interfaces.

Thematic session:

This year, we particularly encourage communications focusing on dialectology
and/or diachrony.

Variation in time and space:

- variation in space. Dialectologists and phonologists usually have similar
concerns: understand a process, describe a given system, explain a change and,
possibly, make a theoretical proposal. The prisms of each other do not always
entirely superimpose: among phonologists, there are those who rather aim to
model, evaluate theories, focus on representations and, among dialectologists,
there are those who rather show interest in data collection, in typology, in
reconstruction. This difference in perspective is far from being a problem. On
the contrary, it is a real good thing: exchanges between them can only be
fruitful. For those, among dialectologists and phonologists, who are used to
making incursions into their respective fields, this thematic session is an
additional occasion for them for exchanging and confronting points of view. 

- variation in time. Exchanges between specialists in diachrony and
phonologists mainly concerned with synchrony are well established and the 
need for such exchanges is something broadly accepted. This thematic session
is an extra occasion for them to fully take advantage of their
complementarity. 

Abstract submission and review:

Abstracts can be written in either French or English. Abstracts should not
exceed two pages in length (A4 pages, Times New Roman or similar, 12 point),
including all examples, figures and references. PDF abstracts should be
submitted on the RFP2016 site at the following address:
http://rfp2016.sciencesconf.org.

All abstracts will undergo anonymous review by at least two referees.

Presentation:

Oral presentations will be scheduled for 35-minute time slots (25 minutes for
presentation and 10 minutes for discussion).

Important dates:

Call for papers: 20 November 2015
Deadline for submission: 1 March 2016
Notification of acceptance: 15 April 2016
Conference: 30 June to 2 July 2016
