Abstract:

Within the study of language and social interaction, the concept of
'accountability'-including related concepts, such as 'account' or 'motive,'
'accounting,' and 'being accountable'-has been of longstanding interest in
terms of how interactants in both ordinary and organizational contexts manage
their image or reputation, as well as how they achieve mutual understanding.
However, these concepts are polysemous, with different senses being rather
dramatic, such as accountability as 'moral responsibility' and accountability
as 'intelligibility.' Even today this fact is not always remembered or fully
recognized or appreciated by scholars, which has arguably slowed the
development of these concepts. This volume brings together a collection of
novel, conversation-analytic studies addressing accountability, with the goal
of re-exposing its multiple senses, reiterating their interrelationships and,
in doing so, breaking new conceptual ground and exposing new pathways for
future research. The collection considers central theoretical issues,
including turn taking, sequence and preference organization, repair,
membership categorization, action formation and ascription, social solidarity
and affiliation, and the relevance of context. Chapters range contextually,
canvasing interactions between friends and family members, and during talk
shows, broadcast news interviews, airline reservations, and medical visits.
Chapters also range culturally, including English, Japanese, and Korean data.
