Displays of uncertainty and proximal deontic claims: The case of proposal sequences

Abstract: Joint planning consists of people making proposals for future actions and events, and others accepting or rejecting these proposals. While proposals convey their speakers' judgments of some ideas as feasible, however, in anticipation of and in an attempt to pre-empt the recipients' rejection of their proposals, the speakers may begin to express doubt with the feasibility of their proposals. It is such ''post-proposal displays of uncertainty,'' and their interactional corollaries, that this paper focuses on. Dr… Show more

“…Treating the normative organization of the adjacency-pair sequence as the central locus of negotiation over deontic rights, I will now consider how this negotiation happens in practice. Drawing on previous studies by myself (Stevanovic, 2011;Stevanovic, 2012a;Stevanovic, 2012b;Stevanovic, 2013a;Stevanovic, 2013b;Stevanovic, 2015;Stevanovic, 2017;Stevanovic & Peräkylä, 2012;Stevanovic & Monzoni, 2016) Svennevig & Djordjilovic, 2015;Toerien, 2017), I will discuss three different patterns of managing deontic concerns in and through sequential relations. Arguably, deontic concerns are a potential part of all adjacency pairs, but they are particularly relevant in those sequences where future actions are at issue.…”

“…Within CA, there is a growing interest in two important and interrelated concepts that are related to authority: viz. epistemics (e.g., Raymond & Heritage 2006;Heritage 2012) and deontics (e.g., Stevanovic & Peräkylä 2012;Stevanovic 2015). Epistemic authority is, as Stevanovic and Peräkylä (2012, 297) point out, the right to know how the world is.…”

“…In regards to the second aspect of entitlement, deontic rights are about who has the right and obligation to define and perform future actions (Stevanovic & Peräkylä, 2012;Landmark, Gulbrandsen & Svennevig, 2015;Svennevig & Djordjilovic, 2015). In the context of proposals, Stevanovic (2015) showed a distinction between proximal deontics ("people's rights to initiate, maintain, or close up local sequences of conversational action") and distal deontics ("people's rights to control and decide about their own and others' future doings") (Stevanovic 2015: 85-6). This distinction is also applicable to our study, as an orientation to rights and obligations of suggesting and implementing proposals can relate to actions that are in close proximity to the ongoing activity (e.g.…”
