Schegloff, E. A. (2004). Putting the Interaction 
Back into Dialogue (Commentary on Pickering and 
Garrod: "Toward a Mechanistic Psychology of 
Dialogue"). Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 27(2), 
207-208.

I share the authors' stance on the dialogic 
character of language. The authors, however, have 
left actual interaction out of their conception of
dialogue. I sketch a number of organizations of 
practices of talking and understanding that supply 
the basic arena for talk-in-interaction. It is by
reference to these that mechansosms for speech 
production and understanding need to be understood.
