Interpreting for LGBTIQ+ asylum seekers in the Netherlands
LGBTIQ+ asylum seekers face unique challenges in proving their claims, as their identities are often criminalized or stigmatized in their home countries. Asylum processes rely heavily on credibility assessments, where interpreters play a crucial role in communication. Common issues in interpreter-mediated asylum interviews include lack of specialized training, linguistic barriers, cultural biases, confidentiality concerns, and structural underval…
Labor, work, and action
International organizations have long championed principles of human rights, dignity, and equality. However, the lived experiences of LGBTIQ+ interpreters working under temporary contracts reveal structural inequalities, particularly as remote interpreting and neoliberal labor policies reshape the profession. This study conceptualizes their experiences through Hannah Arendt’s tripartite distinction between labor, work, and action to reveal how in…
Healthcare interpreters X, Y, Z
This study explores how differences between generations X (people born from 1965 to 1980), Y (1980s and 1990s), and Z (mid-90s to early 2000s) have an impact on healthcare interpreters’ job satisfaction. Based on self-determination theory (SDT), the paper argues that the degree to which a work environment nurtures interpreters’ feelings of competence, connectedness, and autonomy can determine how motivated they feel, resulting in different degree…
A case study of unquiet translators
Remarkable efforts have been made in Translation and Interpreting Studies to test the subservient habitus hypothesis formulated by Simeoni (1998) in his seminal work. In the face of increasing evidence that translators tend to reproduce a given society’s or community’s prevalent norms and contribute to the stability of such norms ( Toury 1978 ), subversive translation practices have been reported ( Delabastita 2011 ; Woods 2012 ) and indeed promo…

Jurilinguistics
This is the guest editors’ introductory paper to the special issue “Situating jurilinguistics across cultures using translation and discourse approaches.” The introduction showcases the interdisciplinary vocation of jurilinguistics from its conception almost forty years ago. It is argued that jurilinguistics has achieved its current maturity by diversifying the disciplinary lenses of the originally contributing disciplines of legal translation an…
Como seria uma sociologia aplicada aos estudos da tradução
O presente artigo tem por objetivo elencar algumas das principais vertentes sociológicas a fim de associá-las, de maneira produtiva, aos Estudos da Tradução de forma a promover o conceito de Sociologia Aplicada à Tradução (SAT). Esse rótulo foi escolhido porque buscamos destacar a oportunidade de atrair recursos, métodos e ferramentas de outros campos epistemológicos (os das Ciências Sociais) e realizar uma apropriação seletiva deles para o nosso…
Official Translation
Official translation can be understood both as a translation activity and as a translated document.
E-lectra
Scientific development presupposes the efficient communication of new findings. The increase in the number of academic journals and publications worldwide burdens scholars, also translation scholars, with the responsibility of keeping up to date with ever increasingly scattered relevant literature. On the other hand, legal translation professionals need to select and find specialised documentation and reference material, which the market addresse…
Being Active in Legal Translation and Interpreting
Translation is not a profession. That was the conclusion of a study carried out by the author among Spanish legal translators. However, there are strategies which may be used by researchers in order to promote the social, cultural and economic interests of these professionals, mainly by applying Lewin’s methodology of action-research. This paper presents a research project currently being carried out by the ACTIVE team, which seeks to describe an…
