THE TALK OF HOW (Continued)
How the resultant experiential environment was thereby constituted through the concerted efforts of those who "told the code" and those who heard it will be a principal topic of the ethnomethodological analysis. In that analysis, we will also see how the behavior of parolee residents is recognizable and reportable by lay and professional sociologists (myself and the staff) as deviant behavior that is produced by rule, how that deviant behavior has the observable, reportable properties of formal structures and social facts..., and how the residents' deviant rules have the observable, reportable properties of formal structures and social facts. The "how" of these questions pertains to how the residents, in their interactions with staff and researcher, made it happen that their behavior was observable and reportable and deviantly rule-governed conduct having the status of formal structure and social fact, i.e., what Garfinkel and Sacks (1970) formulate as "accountable phenomena as practical accomplishments."
