The National Foreign Language Resource Center is pleased to announce its newest 
publication, the second volume in our Pragmatics & Interation series:

L2 LEARNING AS SOCIAL PRACTICE: CONVERSATION-ANALYTIC PERSPECTIVES by Gabriele 
Pallotti & Johannes Wagner (Eds.) (2011) 380pp.

This volume collects empirical studies applying Conversation Analysis to 
situations where second, third and other additional languages are used. A 
number of different aspects are considered, including how linguistic systems 
develop over time through social interaction, how participants 'do' language 
learning and teaching in classroom and everyday settings, how they select 
languages and manage identities in multilingual contexts and how the 
linguistic-interactional divide can be bridged with studies combining 
Conversation Analysis and Functional Linguistics. This variety of issues and 
approaches clearly shows the fruitfulness of a socio-interactional perspective 
on second language learning. PRAGMATICS & INTERACTION, a refereed series 
sponsored by the University of Hawai'i National Foreign Language Resource 
Center, publishes research on topics in pragmatics and discourse as social 
interaction from a wide variety of theoretical and methodological perspectives. 
P&I particularly welcomes studies on languages spoken in the Asian-Pacific 
region.
