Details:

Bogdana Huma and Jack Joyce are delighted to invite you to the 7th Resistance Day held at the University of Oxford on Wednesday, 10th August 2022 with invited speaker, Prof. Ann Weatherall.

At the moment we are inviting anyone interested in holding a data session, delivering a presentation or attending. If you are interested in doing something, attending or have any questions please get in touch with Jack (jack.joyce@phc.ox.ac.uk).

Full information: Alongside social influence, resistance is a cornerstone social psychological topic. To date, there is no agreement among social psychologists on what resistance is and how it should be studied. Resistance has been discussed in relation to crowd behaviour (Drury, Reicher, & Stott, 2003) and oppressive social influence (Reicher & Haslam, 2006). Here resistance has been treated as a feature of group rather than individual action and has been related to issues of empowerment and legitimacy (Drury & Reicher, 2009).

This approach to resistance necessarily draws on scholarship from disciplines such as interactional linguistics, and communication studies, alongside social psychology. In order to forge a solid basis for a cross-disciplinary conceptualisation of resistance, we need more interdisciplinary events that bring together researchers from different backgrounds working on the topic of ‘resistance’.

The Resistance Day series brings together scholars who address current conceptual limitations and seek to establish a more robust empirical basis for generalising claims about resistance. These scholars investigate ‘resistance’ as an interactional phenomenon, with each focusing on the practical and collaborative accomplishment of resistance in environments where resistance occurs naturally and is consequential for the accomplishment of core business within those settings.

These studies use audio and video recordings from a wide range of settings, analyzing these materials using the methods and cumulative findings of Discursive Psychology (Edwards and Potter, 1992; Tileagă and Stokoe, 2016) and Conversation Analysis (see Clayman and Gill 2012; Goodwin 2000, 2018; Schegloff 2007).
