Tiivistelmä:This paper examines the dynamic connection between individual and social processes of sense-making in the context of group-based interaction. Drawing on Goffman's theory of face-to-face behavior, two main arguments are developed. First, the grounding of identity underlying group-based interaction typically involves repeated face games during which participant attempt to influence the patterns of interaction while maintaining a coherent image of self. Second, face games generate an "interaction order" which structuring properties and is thus essential to the social construction of sense within a group setting. It is found that the co-presence of participants during group-based interaction is in itself an occasion for sense-making as it enacts language-based controversies that require composition through shared construction of meaning.
