REAL (Research group “Economics, policy analysis, and language”) organizes in 2022 an in- terdisciplinary symposium on June 16 and 17 at Andrássy-Universität Budapest and Nemzeti Közszolgálati Egyetem Ludovika (University of Public Service), Budapest. The program com- mittee consists of Michele Gazzola (Ulster University, REAL), Noémi Nagy (Nemzeti Közszol- gálati Egyetem), Anneliese Rieger (Andrássy-Universität), Balázs Vizi (Nemzeti Közszolgálati Egyetem) and Bengt-Arne Wickström, chair (Andrássy-Universität, REAL).

Language policy is a form of public policy that in many countries finds its basis in consti- tutions, laws, decrees, or simply tradition. The contributions in the symposium will compare and scrutinize, both empirically and theoretically, the role of rules and incentives in influencing individual linguistic practices and representations. In addition, the symposium explores the in- tended and observed effects of the implementation of different language-policy instruments on speakers’ behavior and on multilingual practices in organizations.
