The next International Conference on Language and Social Psychology, ICLASP 13, will be held between 20-23rd June, 2012, in the charming city of Ljouwert/Leeuwarden, the capital of bilingual Fryslân in The Netherlands. The conference will be organised in conjunction with Mercator, the European Research Center on Multilingualism and Language Learning, which is part of the Fryske Akademy.  Local host Cor van der Meer, and President of IALSP, Itesh Sachdev, are working collaboratively to program a dynamic, multidisciplinary, and intercultural conference. 

This conference will bring together scholars from different disciplines who explore language and communication in their social contexts using both quantitative and qualitative methods.  The focus is mainly on aspects such as identities, perceptions, attitudes, beliefs, values, motivations, norms, behaviour, policies and so on in their individual and intergroup contexts.  Topics covered in previous conferences include language and health communication; language learning; bilingualism & multilingualism; language and discrimination, interpersonal, intercultural, interethnic and intergroup communication; nonverbal communication; miscommunication and communication failure; discourse analysis; language and ageing; language and mass media; language and humour; language and gender; language and authority; language and tourism; language and technology; language and security; endangered, regional and minority languages; language planning; and so on.  Papers and symposia are invited for submission on these and related topics.
