To be able to focus more exclusively on questions pertaining to language, the editorial committee decided to split the journal into two publications in 2010, AAŠ continuing as a journal devoted to questions of culture and society of Asia and Africa, and Acta Linguistica Asiatica (ALA) as a new journal devoted to linguistic research on Asian languages. Content description: ALA is an interdisciplinary scholarly journal which publishes research papers, survey papers and technical notes on the subjects of Asian linguistics, translation studies and the teaching of Asian languages, book reviews on representative works on the same subjects, and reports from outstanding events. ALA encourages the interlinking of different linguistic disciplines, fosters dialogue among different theoretical orientations and their practical application, proposes new approaches to existing research themes, draws attention to relevant questions, informs about recent findings and events in the above areas. This newly established linguistic journal is an online, peer-reviewed, open-access journal.
