Meeting Description:

Professor Stephen May and Professor Gary Barkhuizen, the Conference
Co-convenors, are very pleased to announce that the 22nd Sociolinguistics
Symposium (SS22) will be held at the University of Auckland, New Zealand, 27 –
30 June 2018.
 
Since its inception at West Midlands College in the UK in 1976, the biennial
Sociolinguistics Symposium series has become the key academic forum in its
field. It is a demonstrably international conference, attracting delegates
from across the globe, and has consistently been at the forefront of academic
developments in sociolinguistics.

As such, it seems highly appropriate that, in 2018, SS22 will be hosted by the
University of Auckland, New Zealand, the first time that the Sociolinguistics
Symposium has been outside of both Europe and the Northern Hemisphere.

The SS22 theme will focus on the interconnections (and fissures) across
disciplinary, epistemological and geographical spaces in sociolinguistics at
the present time and in relation to (re)situating current key developments
(such as the multilingual turn and superdiversity).


Call for Papers:

Professor Stephen May and Professor Gary Barkhuizen, the Conference
Co-convenors, invite submissions of abstracts for presentations at the 22nd
Sociolinguistics Symposium (SS22) to be held at the University of Auckland,
New Zealand, 27 – 30 June 2018. 

The SS22 theme will focus on the interconnections (and fissures) across
disciplinary, epistemological and geographical spaces in sociolinguistics at
the present time and in relation to (re)situating current key developments
(such as the multilingual turn and superdiversity). Abstracts should address
one of the key strands of the Symposium:

- Anthropological linguistics
- Applied sociolinguistics
- Cognitive sociolinguistics
- Critical sociolinguistics
- Dialectology
- Educational linguistics
- General sociolinguistics
- Interdisciplinary
- Language policy and planning
- Social psychology of language
- Sociology of language

Presentation Formats:
We welcome proposals for colloquia, papers and poster sessions.
