Abstract

Here  I  offer  a  reminder  of  some  of  the  phenomenological  and  ethnomethodological roots of conversation analysis (CA) in the form of a set of ‘field  propositions’.  Over  the  years,  CA  has  certainly  ‘branched  out’  from  those  roots.  However, I believe a reminder is timely if we are to prevent a drift towards a rather  mechanistic approach to the study of everyday cultural objects such as conversations  and their ilk.
