This book advances our understanding of change over time in human social conduct, and represents the first consolidated effort to reveal how micro-analytic studies of social interaction address such issues. The book presents a collection of longitudinal studies drawing on conversation analysis across a variety of settings, practices, languages and timescales, and analyses the ways in which participants produce and deal with practices changing over time. This edited collection will interest students and scholars of conversation analysis, sociolinguistics, discourse analysis, interactional linguistics and pragmatics.

Le sociologue américain Harvey Sacks (1935-1975) a apporté une contribution décisive au développement de l’ethnométhodologie en fondant l’analyse de conversation et l’analyse des catégorisations. Il a renouvelé l’étude du rapport entre langage et action sociale en élaborant une démarche empirique originale fondée sur le recueil, la transcription et l’analyse détaillée d’échanges langagiers. L’engouement pour les démarches pragmatistes que connaissent aujourd’hui les sciences sociales confère une grande actualité à cet explorateur de la première heure de l’organisation endogène des pratiques sociales. Le lecteur trouvera ici une introduction circonstanciée à son œuvre et une invitation à poursuivre de manière critique et innovante le type d’enquête qu’il a initié. Quatre textes de Sacks inédits en français sont suivis de cinq textes originaux qui entrent en dialogue avec sa démarche singulière. Ces contributions examinent la dimension sociologique de l’œuvre, aux niveaux épistémologique, analytique et méthodologique. Elles mettent également en évidence ses apports au traitement d’objets tels que la socialisation, les structures sociales et les identités individuelles et collectives.

This interdisciplinary volume brings together leading scholars from several disciplines to uncover the key to young people’s socialization within institutional settings, from school to the workplace. Among the questions they consider are: what aspects of interactional competence are relevant for participation in practical activities within those settings? What are the interactional procedures through which diverse facets of interactional competence are recognized, legitimized and assessed in the course of practical activities? How do these procedures shape and reflect social institutions and people's understanding of them? The collection discusses interactional competences across a variety of institutional settings, and reflects on the institutional order by scrutinizing how such competences are interactionally treated within everyday institutional practices. The volume enriches an interdisciplinary understanding of fundamental concepts in the social sciences and will therefore beof interest to those working within linguistics, sociology, education, psychology of work, and speech therapy.
