Real-time interaction and sense-making practices

초록

here are two analytic approaches that take real-time interaction to be their primary analytic resources: Interactional sociolinguistics and Conversation analysis. This manuscript offers a comparative analysis of these two research programs for their capacity to examine the contingent divergence and unpredictable variants real-time interaction involves. Through this comparison, I contend that conversation analysis offers more faithful account of how discourse is organized by those who participates in the interaction. Conversation analysis comes to terms with the contingency of real-time interaction better as it retrieves sequential organization of discourse-in-interaction whereas interactional sociolinguistics relies on the underlying social variables that are accessible only to analysts. Some exemplary analyses are offered to demonstrate the programmatic differences.
