Introduction reframing framing: Interaction and the constitution of culture and society

Joseph Sung-Yul Park and Hiroko Takanashi

Abstract

This special issue revisits the notion of framing based on several recent developments in the fields of sociolinguistics, discourse analysis, and linguistic anthropology, particularly the current interest in the notions of stance, style, metalinguistics and language ideology. In doing so, the contributions highlight the importance of framing not only in the management of micro-level interactional practices but also in the reproduction of cultural ideologies and social relations.
