A fragment from Ian McEwan's "The Cockroach": "How could a nation do this to itself? It was tragic. It was laughable. Surely the Greeks had a word for it, choosing to act in one's own very worst interests? Yes, they did. It was akrasia. Perfect. The word began to circulate".

Languages vibrate in the tongues and vocal chords of their speakers; languages beat in the fingertips of their writers; languages reverberate in the minds of mono, bi, and multilingual scholars worldwide. While the predominance of English is undeniable, it is not a logical necessity but the result of a series of historical, economic, and political factors. Many voices in the last decades have questioned its role as the so-called “lingua franca” of science. Instead, multilingualism is increasingly recognized as a more realistic representation of the practice of science and a desirable goal for the circulation of its outputs. This view is supported by international consensus such as the Helsinki Initiative, the Barcelona Declaration, or the UNESCO Recommendation for Open Science. Furthermore, with the advent of artificial intelligence and its immediate applications to translation (including that of scientific and academic texts), languages and linguistic expertise are now in the center of technical and political debates. As central as language is to the expression of human thought, a sociolinguistics of the scientific field has not been systematically integrated into STS studies and conferences. This panel seeks to build on previous experiences in past 4S conferences, bearing in mind that no discussion around language is ever exclusively about language itself. Possible topics include (but are not limited to) studies of bi, multi and translingualism in academic contexts, academic socialization and enculturation through language, languages for academic purposes, IA and automatic/machine translation, translation literacy, sociolinguistics and glottopolitics of the scientific field, language coverage in indexes and databases, languages and Open Access, languages for publication, linguistic biases in scholarly publishing, scientific and linguistic sovereignty, language value and hierarchization, linguistic and scientific centers and peripheries, language use across discipl…
A white rectangle with the following description of an academic panel: While the predominance of English is undeniable in the current state of mainstream scholarly communications, its role as the so-called "lingua franca" of science has been questioned from various perspectives. Instead, multilingualism is increasingly recognized as a realistic representation and a desirable goal for the practice of science worldwide. This panel thus seeks to integrate sociolinguistic studies and STS to analyze the conditions of production, circulation and appropriation of scientific knowledge.
