<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify">The turn to discourse in social psychology, since its inception more than 25 years ago (cf. Augoustinos, 2012), has been encompassing a productive tension:
<i>micro</i>- and <i>macro</i>- modalities of analytic orientation have been developed and deployed, producing alternative, non-reductionist takes in empirical social psychological work. While in recent years these two modalities, more often than not, have
 been developing in parallel but separately, this has not always been the case. In this workshop I draw on the eclectic methodological framework discussed by Wetherell (1998; see, also, Edley, 2001), which suggests a theoretical and empirical merging of
<i>micro</i>- and <i>macro</i>- perspectives as most appropriate for a discourse analytic social psychology. In this workshop, using textual examples, I will introduce and clarify basic key notions within the discursive turn in social psychology (e.g.
<i>action orientation</i> and <i>reflexivity</i> of language in its use), and then drawing on Margaret Wetherell’s and Nigel Edley work, I will proceed to demonstrate the contours of
<i>critical discursive social psychology</i>, by discussing the key concepts: <i>
rhetorical</i> / <i>ideological</i> <i>dilemmas</i>, <i>interpretative</i> <i>repertoires</i> and
<i>subject positions</i> / <i>positioning</i>.<span style="font-size:12.0pt"></span></p>
