(2018): Garfinkel on strategy. Using ethnomethodology to make sense of “rubbish strategy”. In: Critical Perspectives on Accounting 53, S. 31-42. DOI: 10.1016/j.cpa.2017.03.008
Abstract: This paper has three aims. First, it presents what the term ethnomethodology means and explains some of its central concepts and tenets. Second, the paper illustrates an ethnomethodological approach to studying strategy by drawing on a fieldwork study of the development of a waste management strategy in a UK Local Authority, conducted by the first author. Third, the distinctive approach that ethnomethodology takes to the study of social organization is presented in order to outline what it could offer to the understanding of strategic organization in particular. The paper concludes by discussing the insights that ethnomethodology can offer in the strategic management field, including existing applications and potential future lines of enquiry, particularly in the field known as Strategy-as-Practice. The conclusion advocates a move away from rational analytic models, proclamations and prescriptive treatments of strategy towards studying the more mundane work that enables strategic action to take place, notably the production of accounts of various kinds. It is argued that through accounts, members produce the social facts that generate ‘strategies’ of various kinds. This necessitates studying fact production ‘in flight’. Strategic organization is thereby conceptualised as an ongoing achievement of member’s ethno- methods for producing it. zitiert von 2

(2016): Contributorship and Partial Inclusion. In: Management Communication Quarterly 30 (3), S. 279-304. DOI: 10.1177/0893318915624163
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1177/0893318915624163 Abstract: Organizational communication theory and research tends to assume the practices of organizational 'members' are relevant to the study of organizational phenomena, without reflecting on how those members were identified in the first place. This issue is particularly relevant to perspectives that view communication as constitutive of organizations because they may take the very object they seek to explain—the organization—as the starting point when identifying pertinent informants. We provide a communicational perspective of organizational membership by starting from communicative events, instead of individuals. Ethnomethodology’s notions of accounts and sanctions are useful in recognizing the interactionally performed nature of membership. We extend ethnomethodology’s intuition by viewing membership—which we reframe as contributorship—as being achieved through the contribution of actions to the organization.

(2016): Dirty secrets and being ‘strange’. Using ethnomethodology to move beyond familiarity. In: Qualitative Research 16 (5), S. 526-540. DOI: 10.1177/1468794115598194
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1177/1468794115598194 Abstract: The paper is a discussion of my attempt to move beyond familiarity by using ethnomethodology—and the emotional impact of doing so; namely, the feeling of having a ‘dirty secret’. As a social work group member interviewing social workers, the process of fieldwork was all too familiar. However, during transcription and analysis, what I had considered to be ‘business as usual’ was revealed as something more complex. The paper describes how the ethnomethodological notions of being a member, the unique adequacy requirement of methods, and breaching worked to make the familiar strange and became key to my understanding.

(2016): Book Review. Dirk Vom Lehn, Harold Garfinkel: The Creation and Development of Ethnomethodology Vom LehnDirk, Harold Garfinkel: The Creation and Development of Ethnomethodology. Walnut Creek, CA: Left Coast Press, 2014. 208 pp. ISBN: 9781611329797 (hbk) $89; 9781611329. In: Qualitative Research 16 (3), S. 348-349. DOI: 10.1177/1468794115571435
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1177/1468794115571435 Abstract: Reviews the book, Harold Garfinkel: The Creation and Development of Ethnomethodology by Dirk vom Lehn (2014). In this book, Dirk vom Lehn provides a well-judged introduction to ethnomethodology (EM) and a fitting tribute to its late, great, progenitor Harold Garfinkel. The book deals with Garfinkel’s intellectual development; personal details introduced therein are interesting and relevant. The biographical elements of the book are as much of EM as its inventor. The book is, as one would expect, very well researched. It succeeds in bringing together various works and writings of Garfinkel to tell the story of EM’s development from the ‘proto-ethnomethodological’ studies of jurors’ and coders’ practices, through to the latter directions and contributions of EM’s program and the influence of EM in a number of fields of contemporary sociological inquiry. Amplifying the research required to produce a book such as this is a care and enthusiasm in the writing that will re mind those working in the field why they were attracted to this ‘alternate, asymmetrical and incommensurate’ sociology in the first place.

(2015): Using Ethnography of Communication in Organizational Research. In: Organizational Research Methods 18 (4), S. 629-655. DOI: 10.1177/1094428115590662
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1177/1094428115590662 Abstract: Ethnography of Communication offers new analytical and interpretive possibilities for contextually sensitized, language- and communication-based ethnographic studies of management and organization. In this article we provide an introduction and overview of relevant linguistic and related fields, positioning Ethnography of Communication within the broader context of anthropology, ethnomethodology, and sociolinguistics. We describe Dell Hymes’s seminal contribution to theory and method of Ethnography of Communication (foregrounding Hymes’s signature concept of 'communicative competence') and outline what the application of an Ethnography of Communication approach in management research might entail (illustrating the application of Hymes’s SPEAKING grid). We conclude by offering an example of how the methods of Ethnography of Communication might be applied usefully to the study of organizational language, discourse, and communication.

(2012) : Ethnomethodology and conversation analysis In: Cooper, Harris; Camic, Paul; Long, Debra; Panter, Abigail T.; Rindskopf, David; Sher, Kenneth J. (Hg.): APA handbook of research methods in psychology, Vol 2: Research designs: Quantitative, qualitative, neuropsychological, and biological: Washington: American Psychological Association, S. 103-117
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1037/13620-007 Abstract: Ethnomethodology (EM) and conversation analysis (CA) are the somewhat confusing names of two related research traditions that were developed in the 1960s in the United States by Harold Garfinkel and by Harvey Sacks (with his coworkers Emanuel Schegloff and Gail Jefferson), respectively. The contexts for their initiatives were the theoretical and methodological debates in sociology that were current at the time. Since then, EM and CA have become more or less established paradigms that have attracted researchers from a range of disciplines around the world. As a first characterization, one can note their interest in the detailed ways in which members of society collaboratively constitute the situations in which they find themselves and the (inter)actions that take place in those situations. The general sociological issue of social order is reconsidered as a local achievement of members in situations, and the research objective is to explicate how this is done in an accounta ble way. CA can be seen as a specialized form of EM, originally focusing on verbal interaction and later also considering nonvocal aspects. It has developed a rather specific, relatively conventionalized research style using audio or video recordings and detailed transcripts as basic data. Other forms of EM use a much wider range of data types, such as ethnographic observations, while the approach is closely fitted to the chosen topic and the properties of the research site.

Rasmussen, Gitte (2012): Evaluating cognitive competences in interaction. Amsterdam: Benjamins (Pragmatics & beyond)
Abstract: Evaluation is a part of everyday life. Competences, knowledge and skills are assessed in ordinary as well as in institutional settings like hospitals, clinics and schools. This volume investigates how evaluations are being carried out interactionally. More specifically, it explores how people evaluate each others' cognitive competences as they deal with each others' understandings, knowings, feelings, doings, hearings and learnings face-to-face. The contributions focus on different evaluation activities in a variety of Institutional settings in Denmark, Finland, Sweden, Holland and the United States of America. All the contributions approach the theme by use of Ethnomethodology (EM) and/or Conversation Analysis (CA). Thus, the analytic interests concern how participants organize activities of evaluating cognitive competences by means of recognizable interactional methods. This approach differs from other approaches and research interests within cognitive science as it con centrate s on how people in interaction orient towards cognitive competence irrespective of scientific theories.

(2011): Symbolic Interactionism and Ethnomethodology. In: Symbolic Interaction 34 (3), S. 349-356. DOI: 10.1525/si.2011.34.3.349
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1525/si.2011.34.3.349 Abstract: Symbolic interactionism and ethnomethodology, while apparently similar in topic and approach, are radically different sociological perspectives. Garfinkel’s notion of a plenum is used to illustrate this difference with regard to their approaches to the concept of interaction. Ethnomethodology’s rejection of the concepts of actor and context, and its different treatment of meaning, are contrasted with symbolic interactionism’s terms of reference.

(2009): Geschichte versus Genealogie. Warum die Debatte um sozialwissenschaftliche Reflexivitat die Ethnomethodologie vergass. In: Forum Qualitative Sozialforschung/Forum: Qualitative Social Research (Online Journal) 10 (3)
Abstract: This paper addresses the almost complete disappearance of ethnomethodological approaches from the reflexivity debate in social-scientific theory and methodology since the 1980s. This disappearance is remarkable because many of the tropes and questions characterizing the debate around reflexivity had already been articulated in ethnomethodology. The main reason for this neglect, it is argued, is the productive effect it had, as it helped later debates find answers to the epistemological challenge of postmodern approaches entering sociological discourse from the direction of anthropology and science and technology studies. Those answers could never have stabilized in the presence of the fundamental ethnomethodological presupposition that reflexivity is an ontological feature of social reality. The paper ends with a number of suggestions concerning a revision of reflexivity in the social sciences, highlighting the performative aspects of social meaning, especially social-scientific meaning. Es wird die Frage nach den Grunden fur das offensichtliche Vergessen ethnomethodologischer Diskussionen in der Debatte um Reflexivitat in der sozialwissenschaftlichen Theorie und Methodologie seit den 1980er Jahren gestellt. Dieses Vergessen ist deswegen erstaunlich, da in der Ethnomethodologie viele der spater aufkommenden Fragen bereits formuliert und diskutiert worden waren. Das Hauptargument lautet, dass dieses Vergessen einen epistemisch produktiven Effekt hatte, weil es spateren Diskursen ermoglichte, Antworten auf die epistemologische Herausforderung durch postmoderne Argumentationsfiguren zu finden, die hauptsachlich aus der Anthropologie Eingang in den sozialwissenschaftlichen Diskurs fanden. Ware die fundamentale ethnomethodologische Argumentationsfigur, dass Reflexivitat ein ontologisches Merkmal sozialer Realitat ist, berucksichtigt worden, hatten sich jene Antworten nicht stabilisieren konnen. Abschliessend werden Vorschlage zu einer Neubestimmung von Reflexivitat in den Sozialwissenschaften gemacht, die die performativen Aspekte sozialen Sinns - auch sozialwissenschaftlichen Sinns - berucksichtigt. zitiert von 2

(2003) : Ethnomethodology and Conversation Analysis. In: Reynolds, Larry T.: Handbook of symbolic interactionism: Lanham, Md.: AltaMira Press, S. 173-202
Abstract: Over the past thirty years, symbolic interactionists have proposed, on one hand, a synthesis between symbolic interactionism and ethnomethodology, or, on the other hand, that these two forms of sociology are philosophically, conceptually, and methodologically incompatible. In reply, ethnomethodologists argue that neither the synthetic version nor the incompatibility hypothesis accurately understands ethnomethodology. Conversation analysis, which is related to ethnomethodology, no doubt gets painted by the same brushstrokes, and conversation analysts would raise similar objections to arguments about either synthesis or incompatibility. We agree that a synthesis between symbolic interactionism (SI) and ethnomethodology (EM) and conversation analysis (CA) is not possible. However, we do view SI and EM/CA as at least partly congruent. A chapter on EM and CA, accordingly, has a place in a book that is mainly about SI, and we aim to describe EM and CA and their approaches to th e study of everyday life and interaction.

(1991): Ethnomethodology and the human sciences. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1017/CBO9780511611827 Abstract: This book reappraises the significance of ethnomethodology in sociology in particular, and in the human sciences in general. It demonstrates how, through its empirical enquiries into the ordered properties of social action, ethnomethodology provides a radical respecification of the foundations of the human sciences, an achievement that has often been misunderstood. The chapters, by leading scholars, take up the specification of action and order in theorising, logic, epistemology, measurement, evidence, inference, the social actor, cognition, language and culture, and moral judgement, and underscore the ramifications for the human sciences of the ethnomethodologist's approach.

(1985): Zur ethnomethodologischen Gesprachsanalyse. In: Zeitschrift fur Phonetik, Sprachwissenschaft und Kommunikationsforschung 38 (2), S. 121-140
Abstract: Outlines the basic principles of ethnomethodology, which is described as a special discipline of phenomenological sociology, and discusses its relationships with a Marxist theory of verbal communication. The article focuses on the following points: (1) the scientific-historical background of ethnomethodological sociology, (2) the view of society it reflects, (3) the object of its research, and (4) methodological positions in research on this topic. Ethnomethodology and the Marxist theory of verbal communication are delineated and several ways of how the two approaches can mutually benefit each other are discussed. zitiert von 10 Grundzuge der Ethnomethodologie als spezielle Richtung der phanomenologischen Soziologie werden dargestellt, wobei ihre Beziehungen zu und ihre Vereinbarkeit mit einer marxistischen Theorie der sprachlichen Kommunikation diskutiert werden. Abgeklart werden dabei (1) der wissenschaftshistorische Hintergrund der ethnomethodologischen Soziologie, (2) die hinter ihr stehende Gesellschaftsauffassung, (3) ihr Gegenstand sowie (4) methodologische und methodische Positionen in entsprechenden Forschungsprogrammen. Ethnomethodologie und die marxistische Theorie der sprachlichen Kommunikation werden voneinander abgegrenzt; Moglichkeiten der gegenseitigen Befruchtung aufgezeigt.

(1982) : Merkmale sozialer Situationen und Methoden ihrer Analyse In: Höfert, Hans W. E.: Person und Situation: Interaktionspsychologische Untersuchungen: Göttingen: Vlg für Psychologie, S. 199-215
Abstract: Strukturen sozialer Situationen werden aus soziologischer Perspektive beschrieben. Zunächst wird verdeutlicht, dass soziale Situationen keineswegs objektiv vorgegeben sind und nicht unabhängig vom Willen der Handelnden existieren, sondern vielmehr erst durch diese definiert werden. Beispiele für die Variabilität sozialer Situationen werden angeführt. Die durch sprachliche Strukturen und Rezeptwissen vermittelte reziproke Typisierung, Gewöhnung und Institutionalisierung werden als Situationsmerkmale bestimmt, die den Handlungsspielraum der Beteiligten zunehmend einschränken, sobald diese die Situation entsprechend definiert haben. Ethnotheorie und Ethnomethodologie werden schließlich als Verfahren zur Erfassung von handlungsleitenden Strukturmerkmalen alltäglicher Situationen dargestellt. zitiert von 2
