Abstract: The last 25 years in Slavic dialectology mark the period not only of JSL's founding but also of major and multiple political, social, and economic reorganizations in predominantly Slavic-speaking states.During this period research institutions and their priorities and projects have both continued and changed; technological innovation has meant moving towards electronic dissemination, "digital humanities," and innovative modes of presenting research data and findings.In some cases major works (e.g., dialect atlases) have advanced during this period.Moreover, a new generation of scholars has had greater opportunities for mobility and therefore exposure to a variety of linguistic frameworks and approaches, which has fostered cross-border collaboration in the field.The present essay gives an overview of progress made on dialect projects both created institutionally and individually and including both traditional (book, article) and new digital means of dissemination.
