Linguistic Field(s): Translation 

Call Deadline: 15-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.
