本期 LAIC 汇集了经过修订和参考的精选文章,除一篇例外外,这些文章均源自国际语言和跨文化交流协会 (IALIC) 2021 年会议上发表的关于语言、文化和跨文化性:全球辩论、当地挑战的演讲。这次会议在很多方面都意义非凡。 IALIC 会议在其二十年的历史上首次在南美洲由哥伦比亚波哥大的洛斯安第斯大学主办。虽然组织者最初希望这将是一场面对面的活动,但持续不断的 COVID-19 大流行最终迫使会议在线举行。事实证明,这是一件喜忧参半的事情。虽然 IALIC 参与者没有机会亲自访问波哥大并享受洛斯安第斯大学本应是绝佳会议场地的盛情款待,但国际参与者的数量和多样性都在增加。 2021 年 IALIC 会议有来自美洲、欧洲、亚洲、非洲和大洋洲各地的 200 多份在线投稿,成为探索跨文化本质的真正的全球重要空间。会议主题通常范围广泛,邀请与会者作为跨文化的学者、教育者和实践者重新审视和批评我们的理论和实践假设,特别是在危机时期。撰稿人热情地接受了邀请,对语言、跨文化交流以及我们研究和衡量产出的模式等既定模型进行了讨论和争论。在全体会议上,克莱尔·克拉姆什(Claire Kramsch)特别关注教育工作者和学生在语言课堂上围绕冲突进行政治辩论的方式,重点关注美国反亚裔偏见的案例研究、广岛纪念活动、以色列与巴勒斯坦关系以及意大利对穆斯林移民的态度。 Anne-Marie Truscott de Mejía 对她的讨论进行了补充,她报告了在波哥大和巴黎开展的一项国际研究项目,旨在帮助在职语言教师和学习者掌握跨文化关系的复杂性,特别是性别关系和城乡差距。会议演讲中出现的主题包括多语言研究的挑战和启示、后定性研究方法、撰写跨文化民族志的创新方法、基于艺术的研究方法和生物叙事。恰如其分的是,在南美洲举行的第一届 IALIC 会议上,一个突出的主题是语言教学法、课程和材料的非殖民化,特别是当所教授的主要语言不仅是殖民霸权的有力象征,而且也是预示着未来繁荣的科学和经济实证主义的有力象征时。因此,本期特刊应该包括曼努埃拉·吉列尔梅 (Manuela Guilherme) 的全体会议演讲的修订版,他自己与 IALIC 的历史是恰当的。可以追溯到 1997 年和 1998 年她参加了在利兹举行的两次开创性会议,这些会议直接导致了该协会在 2000 年的诞生。Guilherme 调查了从利兹到波哥大的一系列会议上提出的主题的发展性质,发现在演讲中发现贡献者越来越有兴趣摆脱以欧洲为中心的跨文化框架,该框架在 20 世纪 90 年代末合并为第一版欧洲共同框架
This issue of LAIC brings together a selection of articles, revised and refereed, that, with one exception, grew out of presentations delivered at the 2021 conference of the International Association for Languages and Intercultural Communication (IALIC), on Language, culture and interculturality: global debates, local challenges. This conference was remarkable in a number of ways. For the first time in its two-decade history, the IALIC conference was hosted in South America, by the Universidad de los Andes in Bogotá in Colombia. While the organisers originally hoped that this would be an in-person event, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic ultimately forced the conference online. This turned out to be a mixed blessing. While IALIC participants were denied the opportunity to visit Bogotá in person and enjoy the hospitality of what would have been an excellent conference venue in the Universidad de los Andes, the number of international participants increased both in their number and their diversity. With more than 200 online contributions coming from all over the Americas, Europe, Asia, Africa and Oceania, the 2021 IALIC conference became a truly global critical space in which to explore the nature of interculturality. The conference theme, conventionally broad in scope, invited participants to revisit and critique our theoretical and practical assumptions as scholars, educators and practitioners of interculturality, particularly in times of crisis. The contributors accepted the invitation with gusto, addressing and contesting established models of language, intercultural communication, and the modes by which we research and measure our outputs. Among the plenaries, Claire Kramsch raised specific concerns about the ways in which educators and students might engage in political debate around conflict in the language classroom, focusing on case studies of anti-Asian prejudice in the United States, the commemoration of Hiroshima, Israeli-Palestinian relations, and attitudes in Italy towards Muslim immigrants. Her discussion was complemented by Anne-Marie Truscott de Mejía, who reported on an international research project, carried out in Bogotá and in Paris, aimed at helping in-service language teachers and learners to grasp the complexity of intercultural relationships, with a particular reference to gender relations and the urban-rural divide. Emergent themes from the conference presentations included the challenges and affordances of researching multilingually, post-qualitative research methodologies, innovative ways of composing intercultural autoethnographies, arts-based research approaches, and bio-narratives. Appropriately, for the first IALIC conference in South America, a prominent theme was the decolonisation of language pedagogy, curricula and materials, especially when the major languages taught are potent symbols, not only of colonial hegemony but also of a scientific and economic positivism that holds out the promise of future prosperity.It is fitting, then, that this special issue should include a revised version of a plenary presentation given by Manuela Guilherme, whose own history with IALIC stretches back to her presence at two ground-breaking conferences in Leeds, in 1997 and 1998, that led directly to the birth of the association in 2000. Guilherme surveys the developing nature of the topics presented at the series of conferences, from Leeds to Bogotá, finding in the presentations offered evidence of an increasing appetite among contributors to decentre from Eurocentric frameworks of interculturality, which, in the late 1990s, were coalescing into the first edition of the Common European Framework of
