Summary: | This study is the follow-up to our previous article on accommodation (Rouveyrol 2017). It aims at mapping the concept and situate the threshold leading to non-accommodation. To do so we shall rely on Piaget’s as well as discourse analysts’ pioneering work that extended the notion and applied it to verbal interaction. Our framework is Vion’s approach to interactions. The confrontation of concepts to the corpus shows that the enunciative mode of “opposition” plays an important part in the phenomenon, all the more so as it is correlated to a taxemic scale. The analysis indicates that non-accommodation is triggered by a taxemic utterance resulting in speech denial. These utterances work at the modular level and close up an interactional moment which corresponds to a sub-genre (such as polemic) coherent with that of the debate. Thus, it is argued that non-accommodation is an essentially diaphonic phenomenon as well as a pragmatic one since the journalists handling the debate produce a certain number of such utterances notably in order to manage the thematic modules that Question Time debates are composed of. |
