A Foucault Primer
Who are we today? That deceptively simple question continued to be asked by the French historian and philosopher, Michel Foucault, who for the last three decades has had a profound influence on English-speaking scholars in the humanities and social sciences.; This text is designed for undergraduates and others who feel in need of some assistance when coming to grips with Foucault's voluminous and complex writings. Instead of dealing with them chr…

Cyberbeing and ~space
Does cyberculture--along with its new forms of equipment and, consequently, its new modes of relating to equipment--constitute a distinct and different way of being in the world from ordinary everydayness? In other words, is there a distinct mode of being peculiar to the "cyber"? Is there cyberbeing? This paper sets out to investigate this possibility, beginning with an outline of Heidegger's concept of Dasein and moving on to look at the changes…
Critique and description
The organization of repair in classroom talk
This article is a conversation-analytic investigation of the forms of organization that allow specific items of classroom discourse - words, phrases, up to whole turns at talk - to be altered by subsequent items. Central to the article is an analytic distinction between self-correction and other-correction, that is, between repair sequences in which the speaker of the initial item (the "trouble source") makes the correction and instances in which…
Language and the sociology of mind
An initial investigation of the usability of fictional conversation for doing conversation analysis
This paper proposes that fictional conversations be taken seriously as objects for conversation analysis. It also goes some small way towards exemplifying such an analysis. However, the field of ethnomethodology/ conversation analysis has not been exactly quick to embrace literary materials to date, and it has been especially neglectful of fictional (literary and dramatic) dialogue. Again seriously: one may wonder why this has been the case
Why there are no guarantees for interrogators
Reading Piaget's Subject
If a spectre still haunts Europe, it is the spectre of structuralism. This paper sets out to give an account of the discourse of structuralism as instantiated by Jean Piaget's writings on the general epistemic and individual developmental subjects and by the various readings of Piaget that have come to prominence of late. It is assumed that these 'readings' are an inseparable part of Piagetian discourse insofar as some putatively 'pure' Piaget is…
Two Axes for the Analysis of ‘Commonsense’ and ‘Formal’ Geographical Knowledge in Classroom Talk
Teaching and learning the various aspects of a school discipline's contents (its ‘subject knowledge') are obviously part of the main agenda for high schools. While a vast body of material exists on curriculum contents, on pedagogic techniques for their dissemination and on the psychology of learning, very little attention has been paid to actual sites of learning in relation to the production of knowledge and its acquisition. This is especially s…
History Lessons
Terry Eagleton (1982) recently announced end of - but characteristically the announcement was ambiguous and by the end of his paper it is obvious enough that he is actually announcing another goal for criticism and thsi goal is not much of an advance upon the 'plain speaking' of his traditional English marxist background: We need to insist that rhetoric is a matter of inventio and dispositio,of (if you like) 'subject matter' and not just elecutio…

Writing, Sexism and Schooling
Queensland, somewhat belatedly by comparison with other States (Taylor, 1982), has recently taken up ‘sexism in schooling’ as a problem for official treatment. In the course of so doing, the Education Department has produced a number of widely distributed texts, most notably a Departmental Policy Statement. The purpose of the present paper is to examine textual production and effectivity in this context. In particular, it is argued that the produ…

Hermeneutic and ethnomethodological formulations of conversational and textual talk
This paper attempts to render explicit, and then present a critique of, certain affinities between hermeneutic and ethnomethodological work on conversation/discourse that are tentatively raised in Misgeld's (1977) discussion of Habermas and gadamer. I begin by formulating the ways in which this possible parallel could be construed both (a) by overlaying a reading of sack's and Garfunkle's work onto Misgeld's consideration of Habermas and gadamer …
Ethnomethodology and the Position of Relativist Discourse
The paper works through the topic of ‘theorising’ as it has been treated in ethnomethodology. It is concerned to show (a) that the topic has a somewhat equivocal status within that discourse; (b) that some recent self‐critical moves in ethnomethodology which have been touched off by considering these problems constitute no more than further uncritical repetitions of that discourse; (c) that ethnomethodology's critics have been concentrating unnec…
Cultural Creation
The concern of this paper is to locate certain troubles and contradictions within Lucien Goldmann's avowedly sociological programme for the investigation of culture. It will be seen that these turn, generally, upon Goldmann's insistence on maintaining a central methodological position for the category of the subject and, more particularly, upon his conception of the subject as individual (rather than collective) subject. Part of these methodologi…
