Poster Sessions are an ideal space for presentations and interactions over a longer period of time, which can lead to longer discussions, and peer-to-peer exchanges. Poster Sessions will last 1 hour. Papers sent to Poster Sessions will be evaluated by the Scientific Committee of the area for which the paper is being submitted.
The purpose of the Special Sessions is to promote advanced discussions on the proposed topics. Special Sessions will last 3 hours in a single session. The session coordinators will select the papers to be presented. Papers submitted to Special Sessions will be evaluated by the organisers of the Special Sessions.
In this commemorative edition, the International Congress of ABRALIN will host Satellites Events. These events will function independently, each having its own organising committee. The Satellite Events will take place in the same space of the Congress, during the afternoon. Papers submitted to Satellite Events will be evaluated by the organizers of the Satellite Event.
Only abstracts will be accepted. They must be sent using the registration platform.
Abstracts must contain a title and a minimum of three keywords.
Abstracts must contain a maximum of 4000 characters with space.

The organisers of ABRALIN50 invite proposals for special sessions covering emerging topics, challenges, interdisciplinary research, or subjects that could foster useful debate in linguistics. The theme of ABRALIN50 is “Linguistics in Contemporaneity: debates, challenges and proposals”. Thus, special sessions proposals related to the theme will be especially welcome. Proposals that are related to the different theoretical areas represented by ABRALIN will also be accepted, though. It is important to note that the purpose of the special sessions is to promote advanced discussions on the proposed topics; for this reason, the participation of experienced researchers in these sessions is encouraged.
Special sessions will be 3 hours long. It is anticipated that these will consist of 10 papers, each 15 minutes long, plus 30 minutes total at the end of the session for discussion; however, organisers can also propose a different format within this time slot. Proponents of special sessions should organize and coordinate them.
The name(s) and affiliations of the proposer(s), including contact information and a brief biography of each organizer. The coordination of the symposium should be composed of at most two specialists affiliated to different national or international institutions.
A summary (up to 800 words) of the session topic that describes its importance, details the objective of the special session, and sets out the session’s format. The summary should clearly explain why the topic is better covered in a special session rather than a regular conference session.
Special session proposers are invited to submit a proposal via email to: abralin50@abralin.org no later than 15 July 2018. Please put “Special Session Proposal” in the subject line.
Proposals will be evaluated by the ABRALIN Scientific Committee for relevance and significance. A very restricted number of special sessions will be selected.
Notification of acceptance of special session is expected July 30, 2018.
Papers submitted to special sessions will go through the same anonymous review process as regular papers, with session organizers assisting in reviewer recruitment and assignment, and in the final paper decisions.
Special sessions which do not receive enough accepted papers will be cancelled.
Organizers of special sessions should register for the event.
