Childhood is increasingly saturated by technology: from television to the Internet, video games to 'video nasties', camcorders to personal computers. Children, Technology and Culture looks at the interplay of children and technology which poses critical questions for how we understand the nature of childhood in late modern society. This collection brings together researchers from a range of disciplines to address the following four aspects of this relationship between children and technology: *children's access to technologies and the implications for social relationships *the...

We live in a world where social interaction is increasingly mediated by technological devices. In this book, Ian Hutchby explores the impact these technologies have on our attempts to communicate. Focusing on four examples - telephones, computerized expert systems at work, speech-based systems dealing with enquiries from the public, and multi-user spaces on the Internet - Hutchby asks: are we increasingly technologized conversationalists, or is technology increasingly conversationalized?
Conversation and Technology draws on recent theory and empirical research in...

This poses questions for how we understand the social worlds of pre-adolescent children and their relationships with each other, as well as adults.

A practical application of the children's social competence model, it focuses on children's social interactions, as opposed to what children's social competence...

A text which addresses the relationship between childhood, competence and the social arenas of action in which children live their lives. Taking issue with the view that children are merely apprentice adults, the contributors develop a picture of children as competent, sophisticated social agents, focusing on the contexts which both enable and constrain that competence.

Using conversation analysis to explore the nature of argument, asymmetry, and power, this book focuses on the interplay between the structures of participation on talk radio. It demonstrates how conversation analysis may be used to account for power as a feature of institutional discourse.
