Linguistic Field(s): Sociolinguistics 

Call Deadline: 31-Mar-2022 

Meeting Description:

This conference is conceived of as an accessible new forum for cutting-edge
sociolinguistic research. It is open to a broad range of sociolinguistics
researchers, including those working outside the Anglo-Western sociolinguistic
tradition, who address the varying and rapidly changing modes of linguistic
interactions in the highly diverse world of today. Following two realizations
in Budapest, the event is now moving to another of the major Central European
capitals, Prague. Coming from the European context, we are highly aware of the
importance of perspectives from different corners of the world, including
those not usually heard from.

The main themes of the conference are diversities, new media and language
management. They reflect the most visible trends from both global and local
perspectives: evolving diversity and the omnipresence of the new media in the
contemporary social world. The dynamic character of diversity in contemporary
societies may lead us to be more sensitive to the management of language and
communication we are doing on an everyday basis. It may also make us
increasingly contemplate our language use and communication practices overall.
New media and their various genres represent spaces where we can very quickly
and easily reflect upon language use, and use various modes to do so. Of
course, the management of language and communication has always existed. What
has evolved in recent years is its sociolinguistic analysis, driven, among
others, by the changes continually happening around us.

Considering the wide range of research traditions and theoretical frameworks
used in sociolinguistic research around the world, we invite contributions
that address both the topics addressed above and all other relevant topics
from any area of sociolinguistics.

Plenary speakers:
- Ana Deumert (University of Cape Town, South Africa)
- Dong Jie (Tsinghua University, China)
- Milan Ferenčík (University of Prešov, Slovakia)
- Nkonko Kamwangamalu (Howard University, USA)
- Goro Christoph Kimura (Sophia University, Japan)

Note on registration:
- First authors, poster presenters, panel convenors and other attending

- Please note that this is a call for additional papers, after the conference
was rescheduled to 2022 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Authors whose
presentations have already been accepted do not need to resubmit their
abstracts, unless they wish to submit an entirely new one.


Call for Papers:

We invite abstract submissions for the following types of contributions:
1. Individual papers
-Individual paper presentations will be allocated 20 minutes plus 10 minutes
for discussion.
2. Posters
- Poster presentations will be allocated their own time slot during the
conference. No printed posters will be presented; posters will be displayed on
digital screens and thus can include multimodal materials (sound, video etc.).
3. Panels
- Panels consist of 4–7 papers and a discussant’s contribution. Each will be
allocated 20 minutes plus 10 minutes for discussion after each paper. - - The
discussant’s contribution may be shorter, leaving more time for discussion.

Abstract Guidelines:
- Abstracts, created in doc, docx or rtf format and consist of max. 300 words
plus references, and should also contain 3–5 keywords.
- The abstracts should be submitted via the online Conference Registration
System (found here: https://www.ics3.org/about-ics-3/registration) by March
31, 2022.
- Panel convenors are asked to individually collect panel paper abstracts and
submit them, together with the discussant’s name and a panel introduction
(max. 500 words excluding references) in a single document.
- Abstracts should include information on the theoretical framework, research
questions, data and methods and summarize the main findings. The selection of
papers for presentation at ICS.3 will be carried out by the Scientific
Committee and the Organizing Committee.

Notes on publication:
The conference organizers do not plan to publish conference proceedings.
Authors seeking publication opportunities for their contributions are
encouraged to discuss such options (including, but not limited to, special
issues of journals and edited volumes inspired by conference topics) with
their fellow participants.
