8th INTERNATIONAL PRAGMATICS CONFERENCE
TORONTO, Canada
13-18 July 2003

CALL FOR PAPERS

There is one submission deadline for paper and panel proposals: 1
November 2002 A call for papers with complete instructions, paper and
panel submission forms, as well as a registration form, are to be
found on the IPrA website (address below). Paper versions can be
requested from Ann Verhaert (ann.verhaertipra.be)

GO TO: http://ipra-www.uia.ac.be/ipra/

THEMES: As always, the conference will be open to all themes relevant
to the pragmatics of language in its widest sense as an
interdisciplinary cognitive, social, and cultural perspective.
Prospective participants should, however, pay attention to the
distribution of topics across event types, as described below. In
addition, there is a special theme.

SPECIAL THEME:

Linguistic pluralism : policies, practices and pragmatics

This is a theme that was chosen by the Local Site Committee and
approved by the Consultation Board. It corresponds to the interests of
a large number of IPrA members, and permits us to link cognitive,
linguistic, social and political approaches to a phenomenon of
long-standing interest in pragmatics and of current theoretical, as
well as social and policy importance. The intention will be to focus
the conference on making those links in a number of ways, ranging from
choice of plenary speakers and special panels, to invitations to
interested and relevant Canadians outside the academy. The theme is
one which also fits the venue, given Canada's historical involvement
in debates on such issues, and Toronto's profile as a major centre of
new globalized urban multilingualism. However, it is meant here to go
beyond traditional ideas about "multilingualism" understood as
connecting linguistic difference primarily to ethnic or national
distinctions, and rather to extend that concept to the links between
language and all forms of social difference and social inequality. The
theme is also appropriate to the expertise of the members of the Local
Site Committee which is committed to tying academic approaches to
broader public debates.
