Conference

Second call

Dear Colleagues,
we kindly invite you to the 9th international conference on Discourse, Communication and the Enterprise. The conference aims to promote and foster interaction between those interested in discourse and communication in organisational settings, and follows a series of successful conferences (Lisbon 2001, Vigo 2003, Rio de Janeiro 2005, Nottingham 2007, Milan 2009, Hong Kong 2011, Beijing 2013 and Naples 2015).

Update: We are glad to announce that the 7th Critical Approaches to Discourse Analysis across Disciplines Conference (CADAAD) will take place 4-6 July 2018 and will be hosted by Aalborg University, Denmark.

CADAAD conferences are intended to promote current directions and new developments in cross-disciplinary critical discourse research. We welcome papers which, from a critical-analytical perspective, deal with contemporary social, scientific, political, economic, or professional discourses and genres. Possible topics include but are by no means limited to the following:

The 16th International Pragmatics Conference, organized by the International Pragmatics Association (IPrA – http://pragmatics.international), will be held in Hong Kong from 9 to 14 June 2019, at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University. See http://pragmatics.international/page/HongKong As on earlier occasions, the conference is open to all topics relevant to the field of linguistic pragmatics, broadly conceived as the interdisciplinary (cognitive, social, cultural) science of language use.

2nd Call for Papers

The aim of this interdisciplinary workshop is to explore the potential for collaboration between researchers in Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), Corpus Linguistics (CL) and Conceptual History (CH), the study of key socio-political concepts in their historical context.

The fourth international conference Critical Approaches to Discourse Analysis across Disciplines (CADAAD) will take place at the University of Minho in Braga, Portugal, 4-6 July 2012.

During the past few decades, the face of social, cultural and linguistic diversity in societies all over the world has changed radically, producing complexity of a different kind than what has traditionally been captured in the notion of multiculturalism. This ‘new’ diversity, or super-diversity (Vertovec 2007), encompasses a wide range of societal and cultural transformations that stem mainly from accelerated processes of geocultural and mediated globalization of the last two decades.

We welcome submissions to the First International Conference on Translation Studies which will be held on 8-9 May 2014 in Bangkok, Thailand. ICTS2014 aims to be a supportive space for those who wish to present their latest studies and research projects related to Asian languages and cultures. It further seeks to create a dynamic network of researchers working in Translation Studies. This interdisciplinary conference further welcomes researchers of related disciplines who focus their studies on Asian languages and cultures.
