and which seek to forge new links between established fields (e.g.
linguistics, sociology, psychology, neurology, education, speech &
language pathology) or to develop new sub-fields are particularly
welcome.
All submissions will be peer-reviewed, anonymously, by members of the
organising committee and selected on the grounds of originality,
clarity, significance of findings and conclusions, and contributions
to under-developed and/or new interdisciplinary areas of
bilingualism.
The deadline for submissions is 30 September 1996. Notices of
acceptance will be sent out in November, together with full
conference programme, travel details and tourist information.
