Meeting Description:

Since the first international meeting convened in Tel Aviv in 2008,
the annual Linguistic Landscape Workshop established itself as the
leading conference for interdisciplinary research on language in
public space. The 2025 conference theme “Spaces of collapse and
transformation” aims to address the dynamics of transformations that
unfold in societies trending toward collapse through war, poverty,
overexploitation of resources, environmental destruction, etc.
Collapse and transformation are concepts addressed by scholars working
in various disciplines. And in the focus of LL research are
transformative socio-spatial practices that push us to consider
uncomfortable challenges facing humanity, opportunities for structural
change, critical points where the survival of humanity is threatened,
as well as new ideas, values, and technologies that potentially enable
us to avoid variations of collapse. Please note, however, that LL16
also welcomes contributions which address other topics of relevance to
the field.

Call for Papers:

We invite you to submit your abstract no later than Friday 15 November
2024. Paper and poster abstracts should be no more than 300 words
(specifying theoretical and analytical approaches as well as data
under investigation), not including references. We also invite a
limited number of panels which comprise five 30-min slots and a 30-min
discussion. Panel outlines should be no more than 500 words, not
including 150-word abstracts and references. The official language of
the conference is English. All submissions are managed on ConfTool:
https://www.conftool.com/ll16-ude

The conference is traditionally preceded by a workshop programme on 2
September 2025. The workshop “Disorienting encounters in/with semiotic
landscapes” is facilitated by Dr. Sean P. Smith and Dr. Natasha
Volvach. It is open to all and can be attended independent of the LL16
conference.
