Revisiting Multiculturalism and Interdisciplinarity in today's Academic

The purpose of this conference is to create a forum for discussions on changes
in the perception of cultural and linguistic identities in an academic

place in today's globalized and multicultural societies. 

We invite representatives from the departments of humanities and social
sciences who are interested in exchanging theoretical and practical approaches
to these phenomena and processes: on a global, national or regional level;
from disciplinary, intercultural, cognitive and educational perspectives. 

Therefore, the conference aims to bring together scholars and practitioners
from the fields of anthropocentric linguistics; anthropological linguistics;
linguistic anthropology; identity and cultural studies; SLA, ESP and English
as a lingua franca.
   
The themes that will be discussed and analyzed during the conference:

- Multiple identities and Englishes in academic communication
- Interdisciplinarity, and the structure and functions of academic texts
- Multiculturalism: theoretical and practical challenges
- Identity negotiation in cultural and academic contexts; cross-cultural
perspectives
- English as a lingua franca and 'national' discourses
