Abstract(s)
From a dialogical and Bakhtinian theoretical stance, self-identity is seen a process and a product of the tensional relation between multiple perspectives or positions. Even in the midst of different dialogical approaches to self, there is an overarching consensus that the dialogical dynamics established by these
different positions are a core element for understanding how identity works. One of the main problems of the field has been the development of empirical methods enabling the study of such dynamics. Positioning Microanalysis is a method based in a dialogical approach, which aims the systematic tracing by
trained observers of the dialogical dynamics of self-positions as they unfold over time.
