John Benjamins is pleased to announce that former Associate Editor Robert
Blackwood (University of Liverpool) will succeed Eliezer Ben-Rafael (Tel Aviv
University) as Editor of the journal Linguistic Landscape; An international
journal, who will stay on as Editor Emeritus.

In this day and age languages surround us everywhere; languages appear in
flashy advertisements and commercials, names of buildings, streets and shops,
instructions and warning signs, graffiti and cyber space. The dynamic field of
Linguistic Landscape (LL) attempts to understand the motives, uses,
ideologies, language varieties and contestations of multiple forms of
‘languages’ as they are displayed in public spaces. The rapidly growing
research in LL grants it increasing importance within the field of language
studies. LL research is grounded in a variety of theories, from politics and
sociology to linguistics, and education, geography, economics, and law. The
new peer reviewed journal, Linguistic Landscape. An international journal
(LL), plans to publish highly rigorous research anchored in a variety of
disciplines. It is open to all research methodologies (e.g., qualitative,
quantitative and others) and concerned with all domains and perspectives of
LL. It will also include thematic issues around a given topic, book reviews
and discussion forums.
