Translating and Interpreting Justice in a Postmonolingual Age

Translation Studies, a young (inter)discipline has found in our globalized world a breeding ground for developing, between Humanities and Social Sciences. This academic field is flourishing in a time when all the certainties represented by political and representational borders are challenged and blurred. In a post-homogeneous and, absolutely, postmonolingual world, change and fusion are now the rule rather than an exception.

Editors provide us a selection of articles combining with success and balance ethics, sociolinguistic and translation dimensions: from postmonolingualism theory to issues related to climate change, going through institutional translation or even power imbalances which determine the mediated communication in different geopolitical contexts.

The diversity of the presented cases, the richness of theoretical expositions and the rigorous global approach make this book a fruitful and profitable reading, both for the various types of academic specialists as for the general public.
