Les tribunaux sont des contextes multipartites impliquant une variété de locuteurs, mais les procédures officielles indiquent les limites du processus, spécifient les parties qui peuvent intervenir légitimement et prédéterminent leurs formes de participation. Le discours, dans les auditions d'internement, se distingue par le fait qu'il est procéduralement limité à l'interrogatoire et au contre-interrogatoire des témoins par le représentant de la défense, la partie publique et le juge.

This study examines the relation between the play and performance of major athletic teams at a large university and use of the campus psychiatric clinic. Upon introduction of appropriate controls, the initial zero‐order relations between team play and performance and clinic usage disappear.

But until now, little attention has been given to the conceptual and methodological underpinnings of the constructionist stance, and the remarkable diversity within the field.

The volume critically examines the analytic frameworks, strategies of inquiry, and methodological choices t
