10th – 12th May, 2017
Call summary: Languaging Diversity 4 Discourse and Diversity in the Global City (28-30 Sept 2018) Discourses in/of/about the city vibrantly conceptualize, narrate and imagine the past, present and future of a city and its citizens. The city's status, character, spirit and image are constantly imagined, reproduced and framed in private and public communication. In urban discourse languages, identities and subcultures meet, as old and new inhabitants interact with temporary visitors and guests.
Deadline for abstracts: 29 January 2010
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.
The following distinguished scholars have confirmed their participation as plenary speakers:
Inspired by the great success of the Second International Conference
on Power & Knowledge held on 6-8 September 2010, we carry on probing
questions of power. This year the conference will concentrate on
linkages between power and difference.
The special theme of this edition is:
Narrative pragmatics: Culture, cognition, context.
But as always, the conference is open to ALL OTHER PRAGMATICS-RELATED TOPICS as well (where pragmatics is conceived broadly as a cognitive, social, and cultural perspective on language and communication).
Keynote speakers:
- Nicholas Johnson, former FCC Commissioner and Visiting Faculty, University of Iowa College of Law
- Des Freedman, Reader in Communications and Cultural Studies, Goldsmiths University of London
The Carsey-Wolf Center’s Media Industries Project [MIP] announces a call for participants in the Dirty, Sexy Policy Conference at UC Santa Barbara.
The goal of the joint conference is to promote both theoretical and
applied research in pragmatics, and bring together scholars who are
interested in different subfields of pragmatics (philosophical,
linguistic, cognitive, social, intercultural, interlanguage, etc.).
Three main topics of the conference are as follows:
Conference Panels:
• The Embodied Discourses: Discursive Positioning in Narrations
• Materialities and Boundaries of Discourse
• Counter-Discourses and Cooptation
• Governmentality and Poverty: On the Intricate Relation between Discourses on Economics, Identities, and the Government of the Self
