ABSTRACT

The aim of this paper is to contribute to current knowledge about special moments – what is referred to as “arresting moments” – when something unexpected spontaneously occurs, by exploring how such moments are part of a dialogic flow taking place over time. Based on a collaborative study that has been going on for 15 years and Bakhtin’s work on dialogic forces, the paper contributes with a conceptualization of “stability within change,” which shows how arresting moments not only create newness but also a sense of stability; a strong feeling of knowing how to meet the future and thereby how to move on here and now. Thus, it is not a question of stability or change, but rather an intertwined manifold of opposing forces of stability within change. Implications for practice and research are elaborated upon.

7. Conclusion

Thanks to a longitudinal collaborative field study and the work on dialogic forces by Bakhtin, this paper has expanded our current understanding of arresting moments over time. We found that opposing forces of flow and disruption as well as sharedness and difference enable arresting moments that can create stability within change. Thus, through the experience of several arresting moments participants can know how to go on, which can be understood as a grounded way of moving forward when we are dealing with that which is complex. This contributes to a greater understanding of how stability and change are two sides of the same coin, which means that “stability and novelty are not different states of organization, but rather they are understood as a same act happening in a present moment” (Hussenot & Missionier, 2016, p. 543). This finding has implications for practice as well as research, which will be elaborated upon below.
