Abstract

The article examines the moderator’s initiation in Indonesia Lawyers Club (ILC) discussion within the framework of genre analysis. The term sub-genre initiation is one of folded discourses in ILC discussion. The study of the sub-genre initiation is aimed to leverage the audience’s response for giving detailed information. The data of utterances are taken purposively based on the richness of information from sessions in ILC discussion during the year 2012 with the selection to 10 available different topics of discussion. The utterances are analyzed by combining the genre analysis paradigm of Swales’ about move structure model and the comprehensive pragmatic context. The result shows that the moves as unified structures of functional meaning forming the sub-genre initiation are greeting; recalling past events (by the steps of narrating, establishing opinion, showing emphaty, making analogy, or affirming the fact ect); presenting the topic (by relating the other topics, convincing audience); and addressing the person in concern.
