Activist Translator Communities in the 21st Century: Challenging or Reinforcing Structures of Power?<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Translation has the potential to play a transformative role in reconfiguring social and political relations by articulating new forms of knowledge through the responsible confrontation of diverse epistemologies and cultural experiences. The work of activist groups such as Guerrilla Translators and Respond Crisis Translation attests to the power of translation in this respect. At the same time, translational encounters, even when well intentioned, can be exploitative, manipulative, and can reinforce rather than challenge structures of power. This is evident in the work of a growing number of \u2018activist\u2019 groups that claim to offer volunteer translation to spread purportedly progressive ideas and support marginalized communities. Some of these groups adopt discourses of globalization, development, human rights, diversity and mutual understanding that mask aggressive processes of homogenization, exclusion and co-optation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Building on earlier studies of activist communities of translation and interpreting, by myself and others, this presentation will offer a critical analysis of the political positioning and language policies of a number of recently founded groups of volunteer translators and interpreters. With some exceptions, much of the work of these (often well intentioned) groups will be shown to perpetuate epistemic injustice and reinforce existing social and political inequalities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Abstract<\/summary>

La „norma“ remite a un concepto transversal que obliga a reflexionar y decidir de forma permanente sobre su alcance en la teor\u00eda y en la pr\u00e1ctica. La complejidad del concepto exige un an\u00e1lisis de las implicaciones que el concepto de \u201cnorma\u201d tiene en la formaci\u00f3n, la actividad y la evaluaci\u00f3n de los profesionales que trabajan con el lenguaje como materia prima. La norma se analiza desde diversos \u00e1mbitos de las Ciencias Sociales, ofreciendo una tipolog\u00eda conceptual que pretende esclarecer algunas de las m\u00e1s frecuentes apor\u00edas y contradicciones.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/details><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Speaking Memory: Translation Sites and their Conflicting Stories<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Abstract<\/summary>
\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A hotel in Sarajevo, a memorial in Lviv, a bridge in Mostar, a museum in Ottawa, a garden in Ireland, a market in Hong Kong and a church in Toledo, these are all sites shaped by conversations across languages. Here words and histories meet \u2013 in modes of coexistence, rivalry or conquest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Translation sites are places of overlapping and conflicting stories. To visit them is to experience competing versions of history and the uneven fit between present and past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This presentation will focus on the city of Prague between 1900 and 1935, and the opera houses that crystallized its competing cultural worlds. During a period of great effervescence, musicians and mediators played important roles, among others, Max Brod, Leos Janacek, Milena Jesenska, Alexander Zemlinsky, making Prague an emblematic translational city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Complexity Thinking in Translation Studies: A Critical Reflection<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

Sprache: Englisch. Verdolmetschung ins Spanische.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Abstract<\/summary>
\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Complexity thinking has now been around in translation studies for quite a while. On the one hand, scholars engaged the topic positively in search of concepts and methods that would add value in translation studies. On the other hand, as is to be expected, scholars have engaged critically with a complexity approach to translation studies while not dismissing the endeavour in its totality (Pym, 2023; Robinson, 2022; 2022).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is perhaps time, for someone like me who has been invested in this approach over the past 15 years, to stand back and take a reflective view on the emergence of complexity thinking in translation studies. Taking stock of the emergence of a scholarly trajectory is required every so often in order to orientate oneself to the developments, the problems and the unfinished tasks that remain ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This presentation therefore invites a critical engagement about a complexity approach to translation by engaging with some of the criticism. The main task, however, will be to map an agenda for further research, based on the critical reflection, to continue the development of the approach. I engage the latest literature on complexity thinking generally and the complexity of constraints and absentials (Deacon, 2013; Juarrero, 2023) in particular to work out a nuanced conceptual framework with which to study the emergence of any semiotic trajectory (Byrne & Callaghan, 2023) through a process of translation. In addition, I consider a soft causality for social-cultural studies that is able to reflect the complexity of causality in these domains by further exploring the notion of \u2018propensity\u2019 (Williams, 2021).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
