    Concurrent Operationson Talk: Notes on the Interactive Organization of Assessments CHARLES GOODWIN MARJORIE HARNESS GOODWIN* The analysis of conversation has a strong relevance to the study of pragmatics.Thus in introducing the scope of pragmatics Levinson(1983: 284) notes that It is not hard to see why one should look to conversationfor insight into pragmatic phenomena, for conversation is clearly the prototypical kind of languageusage, the form in which we are all first exposed to language the matrix for language acquisition. The field of study that has provided the most extensive analysis of the pragmatic organization of conversation is the line of inquiry initiated by the late Harvey Sacks and his colleagues.l Indeed * We are very deeply indebted to Alessandro Duranti, William Hanks, Gail Jefferson and Emanuel Schegloff for insightful commentsand suggestionson an earlier version of this analysis. This paper was initially presented at the Annual Meeting of the American SociologicalAssociation, San Francisco, September 9, 1982. l. For a detailed study of both work in conversation analysis, and how that work is relevant to pragmatics in general, see Levinson (1983). See Heritage (l98 a) for more extensive treatmentof the relationship between conversation analysis and the ethnomethodologicaltradition it emerged from within sociology,and Heritage (1985) for a detailed summary of work within the field. For collections of specific analysis see for example Atkinson and Heritage (1984), Button and Lee (in press),Schenkein (1978), and Zimmerman and West (1980). C.

This chapter provides a basic characterization of CA as an explication of the ways in which conversationalists maintain an interactional social order. I describe its emergence as a discipline of its own, confronting recordings of telephone calls with notions derived from Harold Garfinkel’s ethnomethodology and Erving Goffman’s conceptual studies of an interaction order. Later developments in CA are covered in broad terms. Finally, the general outline and purpose of the book is explained. What is ‘conversation analysis’? People talking together,‘conversation’, is one of the most mundane of all topics. It has been available for study for ages, but only quite recently,in the early 1960s, has it gained the serious and sustained attention of scientific investigation. Before then, what was written on the subject was mainly normative: how one should speak, rather than how people actually speak. The general impression was that ordinary conversation is chaotic and disorderly. It was only with the advent of recording devices, and the willingness and ability to study such a mundane phenomenon in depth, that ‘the order of conversation’ – or rather, as we shall see, a multiplicity of ‘orders’ – was discovered.

    1 Introduction TANYA StiVERs University of California, Los Angeles JAcK SiDNEll University of Toronto 1 Introduction The field of ConversationA nalysis (CA) began with just three people, Emanuel Schegloff, Harvey Sacks and Gail Jefferson. It grew, as many new enterprises do, out of a dissatisfaction with the methodologies and theories of the time, as they pertained to everyday social behavior. Forty years later, CA is the dominant approach to the study of human social interaction across the disciplines of Sociology, Linguistics and Communication. The most recent international confer- ence on Conversation Analysis (ICCA-2010) boasted more than 600 attendees. CA publications are estimated to be over 5,000 in number and growing rapidly. In short, CA in the 21st century represents a rich and vibrant community of inter- national scholars working across a wide range of languages, institutional and ordinary contexts, and disciplinary boundaries. It is precisely because of this vibrancy that the time is right for a handbook of CA. In perusing the volume, the reader will readily see the solidity of the field, indexed not only by the number of scholars working within this paradigm, but also by the range of topics and interests in the field and the ways in which CA scholars are reaching to connect conversation analytic findings to other fields of inquiry, thereby continuing to increase the breadth and intellectual reach of CA. Our introductionCOPYRIGHTED to this volume is necessarily MATERIAL brief. However, in it we hope to contextualize the rest of the volume by discussing CA relative to other approaches to language use and social interaction, the interdisciplinary nature of CA, and its The Handbook of Conversation Analysis, First Edition.

  • A Simplest Systematics for the Organization of Turn-Taking for Conversation
    A SIMPLEST SYSTEMATICS FOR THE ORGANIZATION OF TURN-TAKING FOR CONVERSATION HARVEY SACKS EMANUEL A. SCHEGLOFF GAIL JEFFERSON University of California, University of California, University of Pennsylvania Irvine Los Angeles The organization of taking turns to talk is fundamental to conversation, as well as to other speech-exchange systems. A model for the turn-taking organization for conversation is proposed, and is examined for its compatibility with a list of grossly observable facts about conversation. The results of the examination suggest that, at least, a model for turn-taking in conversation will be characterized as locally man- aged, party-administered, interactionally controlled, and sensitive to recipient design. Several general consequences of the model are explicated, and contrasts are sketched with turn-taking organizations for other speech-exchange systems.* 1. INTRODUCTION. Turn-taking is used for the ordering of moves in games, for allocating political office, for regulating traffic at intersections, for serving customers at business establishments, and for talking in interviews, meetings, debates, cere- monies, conversations etc.-these last being members of the set which we shall refer to as 'speech exchange systems'. It is obviously a prominent type of social organization, one whose instances are implicated in a wide range of other activities. For socially organized activities, the presence of 'turns' suggests an economy, with turns for something being valued-and with means for allocating them, which affect their relative distribution, as in economies. An investigator interested in the sociology of a turn-organized activity will want to determine, at least, the shape of the turn-taking organization device, and how it affects the distribution of turns for the activities on which it operates.

  • Transitional Regularities for `Casual' "Okay" Usages
    Journal of Pragmatics 19 (1993) 325-352 325 North-Holland Transitional regularities for `casual' "Okay" usages Wayne A. Beach Received November 1991; revised version July 1992 An understanding of "Okay" usages in conversation requires analytic considerations extending beyond free-standing and non- continuative deployments. Relying on previous findings on how recipients and current speakers organize such activities as phone openings and closings, the present analysis addresses a wider variety of interactional environments in establishing certain predominant and thus fundamental features. Those addressed herein include how recipients and current speakers rely on "Okay" pivotally, at or near transition/opportunity spaces: Decidedly in response to prior talk, yet also in transitionally relevant ('state of readiness') ways via shifts/ movements to next-positioned matters. Though recipients or current speakers may (in next turn) treat prior "Okay" usages as non-continuative, and/or move to sequentially delete the actions "Okay" was taken to be projecting (i.e., `Okay + [fuller turn]'), just what participants appear to be prefacing or setting-up via "Okay" is recurrently (and eventually) apparent. 1. Introduction and overview The present analysis focuses on how participants rely upon "Okay" in recognizably non-trivial, transitionally relevant, altogether pivotal ways in conversation. Basic and empirically defensible grounds for such transitional usages, and their differential consequences for ordinary talk, are elaborated. As part of a larger project on "Okay" usages (Beach 1991a), it is not coincidental that such an undertaking commences by drawing attention to these fundamentally projective qualities. Yet such a focus does not discount how "Okays" are also specifically and unequivocally designed, by and for participants, in ways responsive to prior turn(s).

Whitehead Department of Sociology, University of California, Santa Barbara and School of Human and Community Development, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg [email protected] In Smith, R. Fitzgerald, R., & Housley, W. (Eds.), On Sacks: Methodology, Materials and Inspirations (pp. 195-207). London: Routledge. Acknowledgments Earlier drafts of portions of this chapter were included in a presentation at the National Communication Association Convention in 2016 as part of a panel in honor of Gene Lerner, which in turn was based on a part of my Ph.D. dissertation. Gene Lerner and Geoff Raymond’s encyclopedic knowledge of Harvey Sacks’ work, their enthusiastic encouragement of my efforts to use it as a foundation for my research on racial categorization in interaction, and their detailed and valuable feedback on my work, have profoundly shaped the material I present in this chapter, and indeed all the work I have done since beginning my graduate studies at UCSB. 1 Introduction As a new graduate student with an interest in using CA to study race, I was quickly directed by my mentors to read Harvey Sacks’ (1984, 1986) analyses of “the Bullock’s story”. These analyses were compiled by Gail Jefferson for publication some years after Sacks’ death, based on materials from several lectures he delivered in 1970 and 1971. They have rightly been lauded for their foundational observations with respect to storytelling in conversation, the normative bases of experience, and the interactional management of rights and responsibilities relating to knowledge, or “epistemics” (Heritage and Raymond 2005).
