Abstract
This paper has two aims. First, section 2 introduces a summary of the theory of my dissertation (Haddington to appear). In it I provide an overview of an approach which combines, on the one hand, the successes and tools of conversation analysis, and on the other hand, the discourse-functional “theory of stance” (Du Bois 2004). I further suggest that in order to look at how co-participants construct and display their stances, an analysis of the simultaneously deployed linguistic resources, sequential aspects of turn design and turn construction, is required. Second, in section 3, I focus on the question of how stance taking can be studied with news interview data and consider an example of an intersubjective stance-taking activity called positioning / alignment. The second part of the paper relates to the author’s other work (Haddington 2002, to appear, under review-a, under review-b) which provide more detailed empirical accounts of stance taking and also the stance-taking activity reported at the end of this paper.
