Reihe: The IATIS Yearbook

Covering key topics from colonialism to representation, ethics and power, Interpreting and the Politics of Recognition looks at the different linguistic modalities used within communities to investigate avenues for parity of all citizens, regardless of which modality (signed or spoken) they use. The contributors use a wide spread of examples from a variety of disparate cultures – including the deaf and ethnic minority groups. With nine chapters presented in three thematic sections and a foreword by Michael Cronin, this volume will be of interest to practicing interpreters, researchers and advanced students in the areas of Interpreting Studies, Translation Studies and Linguistics.
