Explorations in Ethnography, Language and Communication: Analysis and Impact in Linguistic Ethnography

This is the second call for abstracts for papers and posters for the 2012 conference Explorations in Ethnography, Language and Communication. The theme of the conference is ‘Analysis and Impact in Linguistic Ethnography’. We invite contributions from across disciplines and topics such as research on health, education, culture and identity. Abstracts should provide a clear focus on what kinds of results can be achieved with an ethnographic approach to linguistic and communicative data. How do we interpret our data? How do our analyses add to wider knowledge of our target disciplines?
