The global/local distinction has changed significantly, and the
topic has been heatedly debated in literary and cultural as well as
translation scholarship. In this age of globalisation, the
traditional definition of translation has been altered. In the
present anthology, translation is viewed as a cultural and
political practice, and accordingly translation studies is based on
a heightened awareness of global/local tensions in translation and
of its moderating and transforming impact on local cultural
paradigms. All the essays in this anthology deal with issues of
translation from a cultural and theoretic perspective with regard
to tensions and conflicts between global and local interests and
values. No matter how different their approaches may seem, the
essays are thematically integrated to discuss translation in a
dialectical framework: either "globalising" Chinese issues
internationally, or "localising" general and international issues
domestically.
