Translation and Public Policy: Interdisciplinary Perspectives and Case Studies

Abstract

In the volume, titled Translation and public policy: Interdisciplinary perspectives and case studies, Meylaerts and González Núñez assembled eight interdisciplinary papers that focus on the role of translation in public policy. These views are founded on Meylaerts (2011:744) who argues that “[t]here cannot be translation without translation policy” (pp. 11, 59). The papers make valuable contributions from each of the areas of specialisation to the developing discipline of translation policy.
