É com grande satisfação que venho anunciar que Gerald de Montigny aceitou o nosso convite e passou a integrar o Conselho Científico Internacional do nosso Programa de Doutoramento em Serviço social (ISSSL-ULL &#38; CLISSIS), para colaborar, em estreita ligação com o GEACC, no desenvolvimento da Etnometodologia e da Análise Conversacional no seio da investigação em Serviço Social.&#160;Uma palavra especial de agradecimento ao Filipe Duarte, Assistente Social, doutorando na Carleton University, que facilitou o contacto entre Gerald de Montigny e o GEACC.__________«Garfinkel's (2002: 171) caution "not to decide in advance what the phenomenon consists of on the basis of prior formal analytic studies" should be canonical for social workers» (Gerald de Montigny, 2013: 146).«For social workers the implication of using EM [ethnomethodology] in research and in frontline analytic practice is that clients’ everyday work to create order and sense can be recognized, honored and respected. Further, EM creates an opening for social workers to examine the ways that their own taken-for-granted practices work to produce and reproduce professional and organizational realities (Boden, 1994; Drew and Heritage, 1992)» (Gerald de Montigny, 2007: 99).___Montigny (de), G., 2013.
