‘I’m just imitating the idiot’
This study examines how exclusionary acts of status degradation are performed through embodied stances and pejorative category ascriptions in the midst of a situated game activity where two boys align in mockful stances and stylized enactments towards a targeted boy. Drawing on a multimodal interactional approach to stance and membership categorization combined with sociolinguistic work on indexicality and identity, it shows how the cumulative pa…
Category relations and norms of feelings in children’s performances of a boyfriend-girlfriend culture
This study explores how preteen children in everyday interaction mobilize relationship categories to negotiate what counts as appropriate romantic feelings among peers. The analysis draws on ethnomethodological work on membership categorization and conversation analysis, integrated with ethnographic knowledge of children’s social life. Particular attention is on how children make claims of and resist membership in a particular relationship catego…
Schwedis’ he can’t even say Swedish” - subverting and reproducing institutionalized norms for language use in multilingual peer groups
The present study explores how minority schoolchildren in multilingual peer group interactions act upon dominant educational and linguistic ideologies as they organize their everyday emerging peer culture. The data draw from ethnographies combined with detailed analysis (CA) of video recordings in two primary monolingual school settings in Sweden. Bakhtin’s processual view of how linguistic norms are used for overcoming the heteroglossia of langu…
Jocular language practices in young boys' performances of romantic relationships within their local peer culture
Based on ethnographic fieldwork, we explore how boys use jocular play to perform romantic relationships in their peer culture and construction of masculinities. The analysis combines an ethnomethodological approach to doing gender with poststructuralist-influenced studies on masculinity and boyhood. We demonstrate how the boys - through game-playing, teasing, humorous narration, and ritual insults - do gender while they explore potentially embarr…
Enacting sabotage in siblings' conflicts
The present study examines sibling' conflict trajectories with a specific focus on acts of sabotage - deliberate obstruction or destruction of activities with an object. Multimodal interaction analysis is used to understand how siblings' conflicts are organised through multiple (verbal and embodied) practices. We further draw on childhood studies that focuses on children's material practices and use the term enactment to better understand human-n…

Embodied performances and footings in a young child’s spontaneous participation in bilingual Russian–Swedish storytelling
This study uses a multimodal interactional conversation analytic approach to explore a two-and-a-half-year-old child’s spontaneous participation in the activity of telling personal experiences in the context of everyday bilingual mother–child interactions. The selected data draw from a video-ethnographic study of children in Swedish families with Russian-speaking mothers. The analysis focuses on a young child’s storytelling activities as co-const…
Young children’s multimodal and collaborative tellings in family and preschool interaction
Stance and footing in multilingual play
Staging social aggression
Drawing on ethnomethodological conversation analysis integrated with ethnographic approaches, we examine the organizing force and normative character of anger and aggression as jointly configured in the affective stances and moral actions displayed in the sequential and sociocultural context of an elaborated gossip event. Analytic attention is on the constitutive role of affect displays and membership categorization in mobilizing negative affect …
Language policies in play
In this study we argue that a focus on language learning ecologies, that is, situations for participation in various communicative practices, can shed light on the intricate processes through which minority children develop or are constrained from acquiring cultural and linguistic competencies (here, of a majority language). The analysis draws on a language socialization approach to examine the micro-level contexts of an immigrant child’s prescho…
Click-guides and panic buttons
This study examines how possibilities for agency are designed into online youth counselling services, as well as how such possibilities are addressed by young prospective users during the design of the services. The data are drawn both from the design of a national website for youth clinics in Sweden and from a design project developing e-services for local youth clinics in a Swedish municipality. The agency of young users is here treated as a ke…
Preschool girls as rule breakers
This study examines how preschool girls organize situated board games. Examining video data using an ethnomethodological approach, we focus on moral work-in-interaction in instances where the girls negotiate rule violations. It was found that the girls oriented to diverse forms of moral orders, shifting between a competitive/justice-based order and a socio-moral order of reciprocal relations. Argumentative moves of cheating were used as communica…
Last year we used to call it a man's hammer
This study focuses on how masculinity is oriented to in everyday interactions where both female and male students are learning how to use working tools in an auto-mechanics environment in an upper secondary school in Sweden. Data are drawn from video-ethnographic work during two years in a beginner's level workshop within a Vehicle engineering program. The study contributes to research on masculinity and technology. An ethnomethodological approac…
School Bullying and the Micro-Politics of Girls’ Gossip Disputes
Purpose – In this chapter, we examine an extended gossip dispute event, in which a peer group of 11-year-old girls take action against a girl who has reported about school bullying to the teacher by examining how the accused girls construct their own sociopolitical order away from the adults.Approach – The analysis draws on ethnographic fieldwork within a Swedish multiethnic school setting combined with detailed analysis (conversation analysis an…
Affordances for Participation
This study explores how young children appropriate school rules and what opportunities for active participation are afforded in a Reggio Emilia elementary classroom with particular interest in the interactional and communicative competences children display in situated practice. An ethnographic and microanalytic approach is used to study how the material environment and multimodal resources are mobilized in the activity. The analysis is based on …
You could just ignore me
The present article approaches the phenomenon of indirect bullying through detailed analysis of the interactional practices that a group of preadolescent girls make use of as they reconstruct the social organization of their peer group, the effect being that one girl is eventually excluded. The data are drawn from ethnography combined with video recordings of the girls' peer group interactions in a Swedish elementary school, during one school yea…
Throwing Like a Girl
This study explores interaction in same-sex and cross-sex foursquare games, and, in particular, how throwing (and talk) are adjusted along with diverse configurations of players. The game was played among girls and boys with immigrant backgrounds (Syrian, Kurdish, Chilean) from low-income families in a multiethnic school setting in Sweden. The study investigates girls' physicality across various game contexts, finding that as the configuration of…
Boys gossip telling
This study explores the ways preadolescent boys stage identities in gossip telling and index a particular behavior as masculine as part of this process. Data are drawn from ethnographic research combined with recordings of Swedish preadolescent boys' everyday interaction in an afterschool program situated in a low-income suburb in Sweden. When examined in detail it is found that the boy's gossip telling, similar to findings from among females, pr…
Play and Games in the Peer Cultures of Preschool and Preadolescent Children
This article is an ethnographic study of children's production and participation in play and games in an Italian preschool and an afterschool program in a Swedish elementary school. Most traditional theoretical and empirical work on children's play and games has focused on the contributions of these activities for children's development of social, cognitive and communicative skills. Other research has extended this developmental focus by examinin…
