This workshop is designed to bring together postgraduate research students to explore ideas relating to critical approaches to concepts of ‘modernity’ in the
context of former Soviet and Central East European state-socialist countries.

This 7th edition of the NDLP conference series aims to respond to a surge of new research in pragmatics, with a view to bringing together the novel, empirically, experimentally and clinically based models, and classical topics/frameworks such as Gricean pragmatics, Speech Act Theory and presupposition. We encourage papers (re-)examining the semantics-pragmatics boundary, which has been sometimes blurred by the confrontation of the new and the traditional frameworks.

A topic of controversial debate today, “discourse & culture” points to fundamental questions in contemporary society such as the role of mass media in the construction and transformation of reality, the interrela-tionships between high and mass culture, or the interpellations of sub-jects in their communities. Discourse is seen as a set of enacted process-es that establish, protect, or change conventions and thus reassemble the wide area of both the material and immaterial environment.

Call for papers:
CLS10 will be hosted by the Centre for Language and Communication Research (CLCR) at Cardiff University, Wales. CLCR works at the interface of theoretical and applied research in the domains of identity and culture, linguistic knowledge, and professional and public discourse.

Organizations 2.0, whether we talk about companies, political parties, national public institutions or European institutions, should, on the one hand, allow a collaborative construction of knowledge where citizens/consumers/ clients are significant prosumers of information and, on the other hand, select those online instruments which allow not only informing, but participating, sharing, mobilizing and interactivity as well.

The New Zealand Discourse Conference is a cornerstone event for research applying discourse analytic approaches. The 6th New Zealand Discourse Conference also includes an emphasis on multimodal discourse analysis.
