Co-Operative Action proposes a new framework for the study of how
human beings create action and shared knowledge in concert with
others by re-using transformation resources inherited from earlier
actors: we inhabit each other's actions. Goodwin uses videotape to
examine in detail the speech and embodied actions of children
arguing and playing hopscotch, interactions in the home of a man
with severe aphasia, the fieldwork of archaeologists and
geologists, chemists and oceanographers, and legal argument in the
Rodney King trial. Through ethnographically rich, rigorous
qualitative analysis of human action, sociality and meaning-making
that incorporates the interdependent use of language, the body, and
historically shaped settings, the analysis cuts across the
boundaries of traditional disciplines. It investigates
language-in-interaction, human tools and their use, the progressive
accumulation of human cultural, linguistic and social diversity,
and multimodality as different outcomes of common shared practices
for building human action in concert with others.
