3L 2012 : Junior Researchers
Conference

JUNIOR RESEARCHERS CONFERENCE

Presentations were based on personal observations and/or experiences and sought to problematise one of the proposed themes, in order to contribute towards the objective of this Summer school to further the discussions on the nature of revitalisation processes.

• Discourses of revitalisation: narratives by social actors (speakers, activists, teachers, learners, academics or policy makers).
• Practices of revitalisation: types of revitalisation programmes and their social meaning.
• Transmission and language socialisation: patterns of language use and transmission.
• Linguistic obsolescence: effects of revitalisation on the structure of languages, their uses and speakers’ attitudes.
