Abstract
This chapter explores a specific line of societally oriented conversation analysis (CA) research—interventionist CA—that has attracted growing attention. First, the interventionist approach is contextualized within the broader area of applied CA, because an increase in applied research has facilitated the expansion of interventionist studies. Thereafter, methodological, practical, and ethical issues concerning the use of CA for interventionist research are explored. To help illustrate the process and benefits of CA-based interventionist research, two case studies are presented—one in the context of language education and the other in the development of conversational technologies. The chapter closes with a discussion of potential future directions for this increasingly important branch of CA research.
