The book aims to serve as a theoretical framework for the
socio-cognitive approach (SCA) that is an alternative to the two
main lines of pragmatics research: linguistic-philosophical
pragmatics and sociocultural-interactional pragmatics. SCA broadens
the scope of the field with an intent to incorporate not only L1
communication but also intercultural communication, and
communication in a second language. The author integrates the
pragmatic view of cooperation and the cognitive view of egocentrism
and emphasizes that both cooperation and egocentrism are manifested
in all phases of communication, albeit to varying extents. SCA
places equal importance on the social and cognitive individual
factors in pragmatics. The author claims that while (social)
cooperation is an intention-directed practice that is governed by
relevance, (individual) egocentrism is an attention-oriented trait
dominated by salience. The book serves as a theoretical guide for
researchers and students who would like to understand how we need
to change first language-based theories to make sense of what
happens not only in L1 but also in intercultural and multi-lingual
interactions.
