Abstract:

The purpose of this volume is to explore key issues, approaches and challenges
to quality in institutional translation by confronting academics’ and
practitioners’ perspectives. What the reader will find in this book is an
interplay of two approaches: academic contributions providing the conceptual
and theoretical background for discussing quality on the one hand, and
chapters exploring selected aspects of quality and case studies from both
academics and practitioners on the other. Our aim is to present these two
approaches as a breeding ground for testing one vis-à-vis the other.

This book studies institutional translation mostly through the lens of the
European Union (EU) reality, and, more specifically, of EU institutions and
bodies, due to the unprecedented scale of their multilingual operations and
the legal and political importance of translation. Thus, it is concerned with
the supranational (international) level, deliberately leaving national and
other contexts aside. Quality in supranational institutions is explored both
in terms of translation processes and their products – the translated texts.
