Title: New Challenges for Conversation Analysis: The Situated and Systematic Organization of Social Interaction
Abstract: At the crossroads between linguistics and sociology, conversation analysis has, since the 1970s, offered a model for analyzing language and action within social interaction. This article revisits the founding principles and some contemporary challenges of this branch of study. Based on an empirical analysis of a video corpus, it presents the issues of multimodality and its multiple temporalities, the interconnection between verbal forms of action and their social significance, as well as the tension existing between research on systematicity and respect of variations, and research on indexicality.
