Whether an image, a discourse, a practice or an ideology, language policy can be approached via different entry points. These call for different analytical lenses, which in turn shed light on different layers of language policy. This is the Language Policy Forum, a forum for all research about language policy.The Language Policy special interest group (www.langpol.ac.uk) exists to enable such broad and inclusive dialogue. We are open to a wide diversity of fields, including (but by no means limited to) sociolinguistics, applied linguistics, linguistic ethnography, linguistic anthropology, political philosophy, economics, education studies, globalisation and migration studies.For further details of our call, and to submit your proposal, please visit our website:https://langpol.ac.uk/view/langpol/events/2019-lpfPlease help support the conference by forwarding this message, and retweeting us:https://twitter.com/langpolicy/status/1060597222881009664.And if possible please also consider printing and displaying our flyer!We hope to see you in Edinburgh!
