Meeting Description:

The aim of this conference is to look at the role of linguistics, dialogue
studies, discourse analysis as well as other related humanities in confronting
or overcoming various forms of communicative misunderstanding, antagonism,
violence and aggression that penetrate domains of contemporary social life. 

Are there any alternatives to oppressive styles and exclusionary rhetoric, as
well as to polarised and confrontational stances emerging from them in public
and private spheres? Can the 'closed' interactive positions be transformed
into substantial, efficient and constructive dialogue? How can the
'unity'-oriented discourse activities compromise, dismiss or accommodate
expressive 'diversity' in the interaction game? The above problems pose
questions as to speakers' ability, competence and responsibility in selecting,
rejecting, modifying and creating local and global discourse practices of
modern institutions. Reflective choices and modelling of these strategies may
be constitutive of 'culture(s) of dialogue'. 

We invite linguists, discourse analysts, sociologists, psychologists,
political and media scientists, law experts, philosophers, anthropologists,
culture mediators (translators, teachers, etc.), as well as other researchers
from related disciplines to the multidisciplinary discussion of prospects and
limits of mediating human culture(s) through dialogue.


Call for Papers: 

Abstracts (300-500 words, including bibliography) of individual papers (20 min
presentation + 10 min discussion) should be sent in through the Abstract
