The next conference of the International Institute for Ethnomethodology
and Conversation Analysis (IIEMCA) will be held at the University of Fribourg
(Switzerland), July 10-14, 2011.
The aim of the conference is to promote the study of practical action

-
Christian Heath (Kings College London)

This call for papers invites abstracts addressing issues at the intersection
of social action, language use and interaction within the framework of
Ethnomethodology, Conversation Analysis and/or connected approaches (e.g.,
Interactional Linguistics). Abstracts should be submitted in English.
Abstracts should clearly state the main point or argument of the paper.
They should make explicit on which empirical data and/or conceptual arguments
they are based. They should situate the topic of the paper with reference
to previous research. Also, authors should explain in what way the paper
contributes to the development of the field.
Abstracts for three kinds of submissions can be proposed: panels, individual
papers, and posters.
• Panels:
Proposals for panels with 3-6 speakers (i.e. 1 or 2 slots) are welcome.

(400 words) with the name(s) of the panel convenors and the names of the
expected speakers should be submitted by email to contact [at] iiemca-conference.org
as a Microsoft Word or PDF document.
- second, if the panel is accepted, abstracts
of the panel’s papers (400 words) should be submitted individually by the
speakers through the Conference website. Abstracts are to be submitted
anonymously and should indicate the title of the panel to which they belong.
