Welcome to International Society for Language Studies
Description
The International Society for Language Studies (ISLS) was created in 2002 by scholars united in their goal to have a forum encouraging and diseminating post-positivistic research in languages matters, broadly conceived. Prior to the founding of ISLS such research was presented in venues primarily designed for applied linguistics, educational studies, language-specific concerns, literary critisism, anthropology, sociology, history, or similar disiplines. ISLS seaks to bring together scholars from research displines whose research has been on issues of language studies.
Montréal was the site of the 2005 conference. The gathering featured over 200 papers, luncheon, and evening reception, with participants from Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, Columbia, Denmark, Finland, Jamaica, Japan, Jordan, Korea, Kuwait, Malaysia, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Nigeria, Oman, Puerto Rico, Russia, Singapore, South Africa, Taiwan, Thailand, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, and the United States.
At the start of 2004, Lawrence Erlbaum Associates began publishing Critical Inquiry in Language Studies: An International Journal, the official journal of the society, edited by Terry A. Osborn and Timothy Reagan. A journal subscription became an automatic benefit of membership.
