Abstract:

Translation, interpreting and other forms of communication support within 
public sector settings constitute a field which deals, quite literally, with 
matters of life and death. Overshadowed for many years by interpreting and 
translating in other domains, public sector interpreting and translating has 
received growing attention in recent years, with increasingly mobile 
populations and human rights, diversity and equality legislation shining the 
spotlight on the need for quality provision across an increasing range and 
volume of activities. 

Interpreting and Translating in Public Service Settings offers a collection of 
analytically-grounded essays that provide new insights into the reality of the 
interaction in public sector settings and into the roles and positioning of the 
participants by challenging existing models and paradigms. Issues of local 
need, but with global resonance, are addressed, and current reality is set 
against plans for the future. The triad of participants (interpreter/translator, 
public sector professional and client) is investigated, as are aspects of 
pedagogy, policy and practice. Empirical data supports the study of topics 
related to written, spoken and signed activities in a variety of professional 
settings. Bringing together academics and practitioners from different 
countries in order to explore the multidisciplinary dimension of the subject, 
this collection should serve as a valuable reference tool, not only for 
academics and students of public sector interpreting and translating, but also 
for practising linguists, providers of language services and policy makers.
