Abstract
This volume sets out to discuss the role of norms and normativity
in both language and linguistics from a multiplicity of perspectives.
These concepts are centrally important to the philosophy and methodology
of linguistics, and their role and nature need to be investigated in
detail. The chapters address a range of issues from general questions
about ontology, epistemology and methodology to aspects of particular
subfields (such as semantics and historical linguistics) or phenomena
(such as construal and code-switching). The volume aims to further our
understanding of language and linguistics as well as to encourage
further discussion on the metatheory of linguistics. Due to the
fundamental nature of the issues under discussion, this volume will be
of interest to all linguists regardless of their background or fields of
expertise and to philosophers concerned with language or other
normative domains.
