| Title | Call for Papers: The Management of Multilingualism |
| Body | From http://linguistlist.org/issues/17/17-2380.html#1 The Management of Multilingualism: Which Future for Indigenous Minority Languages? Date: 12-Apr-2007 - 13-Apr-2007 Location: Brussels, Belgium Call Deadline: 30-Nov-2006 The conference is one of the thematic sessions (symposium) taking place during the Congreso Europeo de latinoamericanistas : 'Las relaciones triangulares entre Europa y las Américas en el siglo XXI: expectativas y desafíos' organized by the CEISAL. Symposium description: The symposium intends to address questions about the actual management of indigenous minority languages. This management plays a fundamental role for indigenous people, to the extent that it determines their access to economic and symbolic resources. The different aspects of this matter may be approached by a large set of disciplines which are interrelated. Comparative analysis with minority languages in European contexts are also welcome. We expect papers addressing: - sociopolitical matters, in relation with different political measures aiming to promote minority languages and determining language use in public institutions, including the school system; - sociolinguistic matters, such as those linked to attitudes towards languages, the relation between language and identity, or the spread of languages (and their varieties) in the social space considering notably the dynamic generated by internal migration movements; - linguistic matters, referring for example to normalization or standardization issues; - psycholinguistic matters, related to the acquisition of spoken and written languages in multilingual and diglossic contexts; - educational matters, such as the management of multilingualism in school curriculum and within the daily interactions in the classrooms, to ensure the teaching/learning of a schooling language.
