Anne, you asked about Fairclough's minimalist approach to transcription.
It seems to me that the way that you transcribe interviews depends very
much on the way you plan to analyse/interpret your interviews. I'm using
Fairclough's critical discourse analysis and a minimalist approach is fine
for that. But it would be a different story if I was using conversation
analysis. I'm pretty sure that Fairclough discusses his minimalist
approach in his 1989 book, Language and Power, but I haven't located the
page for you yet. From memory, it's only a short discussion rather than a
lengthy one. I'll send you the page reference when I find it. cheers, robyn
