Abstract:

This book offers a collection of conversation analytic investigations into how
one US-based philanthropic organization communicates its mission of improving
public health. In contrast to political speeches or news interviews with
prominent figures, much communication with the public involves the routine
work undertaken by institutional representatives as they interact with
external audiences: this book considers precisely how this work is
accomplished.

"Communicating with the Public" broadens the scope of conversation analysis by
unveiling the interactive, multi-party, and multi-modal nature of
institutional messaging that might otherwise be construed as a scripted,
monologic undertaking. To this end, it examines a diverse array of
contemporary platforms, including webinars, podcasts, and television
interviews, as well as face-to-face conversations following public talks and
panel discussions. Chapters reveal how both foundation representatives and
their interlocutors target messaging to specific audiences that may or may not
be present, manage the logistics of delivering this messaging, and position
themselves as credible experts or a unified institutional collective.
