REAL (Research group “Economics, policy analysis, and language”), in
cooperation with the University of Potsdam and Ulster University,
organises an interdisciplinary symposium on language economics and
policy on 4–5 June 2026 at the University of Potsdam, Germany.
The REAL symposia aim to discuss all aspects of language economics and
language policy; and corresponding contributions are welcome.
Especially welcome are papers that address the role of language skills
within the context of increasing mobility, for instance in migration,
in the labour market, and in education. Contributions to the symposium
can cover theoretical and empirical research, or the practical
implications in terms of language policy and impact. The symposium is
interdisciplinary, and contributions are accepted from economics,
political science, sociology, law, sociolinguistics, and applied
linguistics.
The full call for papers, list of keynote speakers, and the submission
process is available here
https://www.ulster.ac.uk/__data/assets/pdf_file/0011/1742492/callREAL2026.pdf
Deadline for abstract submission: 1 February 2026.
