This article is an ethnomethodological examination of ethnic categorization
practices in a community of migrants. The research is based on participant observation
in a auto repair shop employing only Uzbek workers. I reevaluate Harvey Sacks’s ideas
about membership categories by taking into account the classical ethnomethodology
of Harold Garfinkel. The paper focuses specifi c attention on the everyday practices that give reality to the social fact of “ethnicity.” I describe how workers and clients,
in face-to-face interactions, make ordinary actions (cooking, backgammon playing,
tobacco smoking, police inspection of documents) accountable as “ethnic”
phenomena. The research practices themselves are explicated as part of the described
phenomenon, following the ethnomethodological principle of topic/resource shift.
