Meeting Description:

Interpersonal relations are at the core of social interaction and crucial to
how we construct meaning. By examining interactional management of
relationship categories that become visible through (embodied) actions, we can
observe how members of society organise their social knowledge and orient to
social orderliness (Hester & Francis 2004). Membership categorisation analysis
(MCA) (Sacks 1992; Hester & Eglin 1997) offers analytical tools to explore
such phenomena, as it studies “the commonsense routine workings of society”
(Fitzgerald et al. 2009:47), how members of society “proffer their category
work as common, cultural knowledge” (Stokoe 2012:283, emphasis original) and
in what ways categories “make sense in their [members’] everyday lives and
social interaction” (Idevall Hagren 2000).

The purpose of this panel is to explore, using Membership Categorisation
Analysis (MCA), how social categories and relationships are co-constructed by
members of society in their interactional practices. This panel aims to
address the following key questions: 

- How do members show the normative and moral character of categories and the
recognisability of category-implicative actions? 
- In what ways do members reflect or deviate from the obligations, rights and
motives regarded as appropriate for the relationship categories of which they
are incumbents?  
- In what contexts and in what ways do relationship categories invoke
accountability and remedial action? 
- How do members orient to multiple layers of categorization work? 

We would like to bring together researchers that use Membership Categorisation
Analysis (MCA) to examine various aspects of social interaction – casual and
institutional, face-to-face or digitally-mediated – in their analysis of
interpersonal relationship categories. The topics of interest include (but are
not limited to) 
 
- Action ascription 
- Accountability 
- Epistemics 
- Identity 
- Morality 
- (Im)politeness 
- Socialisation 

Abstract should be submitted via the IPrA website, choosing the panel
contribution in your submission: https://pragmatics.international/page/CfP
