This volume explores Australian and New Zealand experiences of
translation and interpreting (T&I), with a special focus on the
formative impact of geocultural contexts. Through the critical
lenses of practitioners, scholars and related professionals working
in and on these two countries, the contributors seek a better
understanding of T&I practices and discourses in this richly
multilingual and multicultural region. Building on recent work in
translation and interpreting studies that extends attention to
sites outside of Europe and the Americas, this volume considers the
geocultural and geopolitical factors that have helped shape T&I
in these Pacific neighbours, especially how the practices and
conceptualization of T&I have been closely tied with
immigration. Contributors examine the significant role T&I
plays in everyday communication across varied sectors, including
education, health, business, and legal contexts, as well as in
crisis situations, cultural and creative settings, and initiatives
to revitalize Indigenous languages. The book also looks to the
broader implications beyond the Australian and New Zealand
translationscape, making it of relevance to T&I scholars
elsewhere, as well as those with an interest in Indigenous studies
and minority languages.
