Abstract
En 中文
This paper explores how conversation analysis (CA) can serve as a methodological framework for studying language socialization (LS). It begins by outlining foundational LS studies from the 1980s and 1990s. It then surveys 35 contemporary CA-for-LS studies (from 2000 to the present) that examine the sequential and multimodal organization of interaction and the socialization of local norms, language ideologies, and moral orders. Following this survey, the paper presents a methodological illustration of CA-for-LS through multilingual classroom interaction, demonstrating how participants jointly negotiate linguistic norms and institutional expectations. Finally, the paper identifies methodological challenges and innovations in CA-for-LS research, including analytic reliability, longitudinal and comparative designs, multimodal documentation, and reflexivity in video-based studies.
