Call for Papers:

The Journal of Arabic Sociolinguistics welcomes research which applies new theories and methodologies to Arabic data. We are particularly interested in articles that address the relation between linguistic variation and identity, variation and sociolinguistic variables (including but not limited to location, social class, education, age, gender and urbanization) and variation and political contexts . We also encourage submissions on code switching in the Arab world, language policy and the impact of diglossia as well as issues related to pidgin codes in the Arab world. The journal also welcomes ethnographic studies and studies that relate anthropology to linguistics and sociolinguistics to education. The journal aims to address a wider audience of linguists, in order to engage them with findings from research about Arabic.

If you have an idea for a special issue, please get in touch before the end of April 2024.
