The conference “Multilingual urban space: policy, identity, education” announces call for papers
Rapid processes of globalization, internationalization of commerce, on the one hand and lack of economic opportunities, as well as local and international conflicts on the other, have intensified the movement of population across the globe.
The primary goal of the conference is to examine the factors that contribute to the linguistic diversity and the theoretical developments in the dynamics of language/culture contact taking place within and between different ethnic groups in the city-space. We expect that this conference will bring together scholars working in various fields of linguistics to discuss issues related (but not limited) to language in the city.
The conference will be held at 10-12 April in Moscow, Russia. It is an annual event held every year within the framework of the “April international conference on economic and social development”, organized by the National Research University Higher School of Economics.
We invite abstracts of no more than 500 words (including references) till 16th February 2020. Abstracts should be submitted through HSE’s online system following the link
