In this introductory article, the special issue editors refer to the little attention paid to the theorization of interviews in applied linguistics and language education research compared with the relatively extensive discussion on the practical aspects of conducting interviews. Talmy and Richards introduce the special issue as part of the “the ongoing discussion about the status of interviews and interview data that continues across the social sciences by arguing on a general level for the need to theorize qualitative research interviews in applied linguistics” (p. 2). The contributions to the special issue are the following: a critical review of qualitative interviews (Mann, 2011); the interview as collaborative achievement (Talmy, 2011); co-constructing ambiguity and clarity in interviews (Miller, 2011); self-presentation in L2 interview talk (Prior, 2011); interview ‘problems’ as topics for analysis (Roulston, 2011); and, using micro-analysis in interviewer training (Richards, 2011).Gubrium, J.
