EAFT, in collaboration with the Department of Translation Studies at the University of Innsbruck, is organizing the 12th Terminology Summit in Innsbruck on the 27th -29th of November, 2025 on the topic Terminology Planning in Europe.

Call for Papers: The Practice of Arguing Together: Argumentation as Social Competency in Higher Education These days, it is not enough for students to just know their field. The challenges we face – such political polarization or climate change – do not respect disciplinary boundaries. In that respect, scholars have pointed to the role of higher education institutions to educate “future-ready graduates” (la Cara et al. 2023). HEIs are expected to help students develop so-called “21st-century

Description: During the last years there has been a growing interest in the study of the morphosyntactic behaviour of proper names (Ackermann & Schlücker 2017; Dammel & Handschuh 2019; Caro Reina & Helmbrecht 2022; Stolz & Nintemann 2024). From a typological perspective, it has been shown that proper names can, to varying degrees, morphosyntactically differ from common nouns. As a consequence, some scholars speak of a special onymic grammar (Nübling et al. 2015) while others propose a special a
