Duruş-Alma ve Zamansallık: Avrupa Parlamentosu Konuşmalarında Duruş Alma Eylemi

Çözümlemenin odağını “söyleşimsel eylem olarak duruşun en küçük yapı taşı” (Du Bois, 2007, s. 174) olan Duruş Üçgeni’nin (İng. stance triangle) ötesine genişleten bu çalışma, Du Bois (2007) tarafından ortaya konulan duruş-alma (İng. stance-taking) modeline dayanmaktadır. Çalışma, karşılıklı konuşmadaki duruş almanın devingen yönünü örneklemektedir. Bu bağlamda uzun etkileşim dizilerindeki duruş hizalamanın (İng. stance alignment) dağılımındaki kaymalara ek olarak duruş nesnesinin zamansal ve kişilerarası dönüşümlerini incelemektedir. Çalışma, ‘doğal’ etkileşimsel parlamento konuşmalarına özellikle de Mavi-kart soru-yanıt geçişlerine odaklanmaktadır. Çalışmanın verisi, Avrupa Parlamentosu’nun Avrupa Borç Krizinin karara bağlandığı ancak hala tartışma konusu olduğu 2011 yılı açılış tartışmalarından alınan 273 Mavi-kart sorusundan oluşur. Du Bois tarafından ortaya konulan duruş-alma modelini betimleyen çalışma, kuramsal katkı olarak uzun konuşma sıraları ile oluşan etkileşim esnasındaki duruş-almaya zamansal bir açıklama getirecektir. Çözümlemede, parlamento üyelerinin ‘ötekinin’ sözcelerini yönlendirerek bir Mavi-kart sorusu süresince ortaya çıkardığı duruş nesnesinin devingen ve kişilerarası dönüşümleri gösterilecektir.

Stance-Taking and Temporality: Stance Taking in Talks in European Parliament

The present study which extends its analysis beyond the stance triangle as “the minimum structure of stance as dialogic action” (Du Bois, 2007, s. 174) depends on the stance-taking model of Du Bois (2007). The study also exemplifies the dynamic aspect of stance-taking in mutual interactions. At this context, it explores the temporal and interpersonal transformations of stance object in addition to the shifts in stance alignments in large interactional sequences. The study focuses on the ‘natural’ interactional parliamentary talks especially to the question-answer transitions. The data of the study comprises of 273 Blue-card questions taken from the discussions of the opening session of 2011 in which the European Debt Crisis was settled but still being discussed. The present study which describes the stance-taking model put forward by Du Bois will bring an explanation in terms of temporality to the stance-taking in the interaction of long turn sequences. In the analysis, the dynamic and interpersonal transformations of stance object which are produced by parliamentary members by manipulating the utterances of the ‘others’ will be demonstrated.
