Linguistic Field(s): Discourse Analysis; Translation 

Call Deadline: 01-Jun-2010 

Meeting Description:

The Chalermprakiat Centre of Translation and Interpretation (CCTI), Faculty of 
Arts, Chulalongkorn University, Bangkok is pleased to announce its first 
international conference on translation and interpretation, to be held at the 
Imperial Queen's Park Hotel on 1-3 November, 2010. 

The conference aims to promote translation and interpretation as an emerging 
field in Thailand, and to encourage an exchange of ideas among translation and 
interpretation scholars as well as practitioners from across the world. Papers
are invited on all aspects of translation and interpretation.  

Twenty-first century Thailand sees a growing need for translation as a result of
globalization and the advent of cyberspace. The Free Trade Agreement between 
Asian countries to be signed in 2010 will likely increase trade activities, but
this may be hampered by communication breakdowns stemming from differences in 
linguistic and cultural background. Translators and interpreters therefore play 
an important role in intercultural communication and in fostering good relations
between peoples. 

With Translation Studies a relatively new field in Thailand, the conference will
serve as a forum for an exchange of ideas among scholars, translators and
interpreters from across the globe.
