Dear colleagues,

Please find below the call for papers for the conference “Areal 
linguistics and language contact of Uralic languages. Language-specific 
and typological approaches 
<https://sites.google.com/view/lcu2025/home?authuser=0>”, to be held on 
*June 12–14, 2025* in Riga, Latvia.
Invited speakers:*Gerson Klumpp 
<https://ut.ee/en/employee/gerson-stefan-klumpp> *(University of 
Tartu),*Kaius Sinnemäki 
<https://researchportal.helsinki.fi/en/persons/kaius-sinnem%C3%A4ki> 
*(University of Helsinki).


The goal of this conference is to combine language-specific, qualitative 
and typological, quantitative approaches to areal linguistics and 
language contact with the focus on Uralic languages and their contact 
languages. We encourage submissions addressing (but not limited to) the 
following topics:

  * typological approaches to language contact and areal linguistics of
    Uralic
  * corpus-based studies of specific contact phenomena between Uralic
    and non-Uralic languages
  * at the same time, we are very much interested in qualitative
    research on important topics in language contact including but not
    limited to contact-induced grammaticalization and disentangling
    common inheritance from parallel and contact-induced developments
    within Uralic
  * the sociolinguistic dimensions of language contact in Uralic
  * interdisciplinary approaches to understanding language contacts of
    Uralic languages

Anonymized abstracts in PDF format should be submitted to the conference 
email at _uralic.in.contact at gmail.com_ by *December 1, 2024.*
Abstracts must be written in English and should not exceed one page 
(using 11pt font), excluding references and figures.  One person may 
submit up to two abstracts: one as a single author or co-author, and 
another one as a co-author. Note that affiliations with Russian 
institutions and references to Russian grants cannot be acknowledged.
