At best, the classification of ethnomethodology as idealist neglects the strongly ‘scientistic’ undertones of the call by conversational analysts for a more rigorous, systematic approach to empirical analysis. See, for example Vol.

This compromized relativism may be retained in Barnes's writing in order to avoid what is sometimes regarded as the harmful consequences of the charge that relativism is self-defeating. For an attempt to show that these consequences need not be regarded as harmful, see Vol.

says he is not a realist but an instrumentalist and a relativist. But we should be clear that Barnes's quarrel is with naive realism. He thus disdains the reflective view of accounts, but this does not take him beyond the mediative view. This adherence to the mediative view and his unwillingness to take seriously the constitutive view of accounts (see below) makes it difficult to understand Barnes's claim to relativism as any more than a device for distancing himself from naive realism. Barnes may be a sophisticated realist, but a realist nonetheless

speaks of Laboratory Life by B. Latour and S. Woolgar; Beverly Hills, Calif.: Sage 1979 as ‘ethnomethodological’ order to argue that ethnomethodology does engage in instrumentalist theorizing. But this characterization exemplifies the confusion I am trying to point out. For an elegant argument that Laboratory Life does not address the concerns of ethnomethodology, see Vol. forthcoming
