Course overview

This course extends the subject matter of our introductory course. It examines how power relations underlie a lot of what is said in verbal interaction. Such behaviour occurs within a physical environment, and so personal space and the town/country divide is considered. Finally two aspects of interaction, attraction and ethical behaviour are discussed.
