Oil as Solution to the Problems of Oil
In North America, one factor shaping petromodernity is the idea that oil offers a solution to the very problems it causes. This article examines that paradox, focusing on the 1950s. It analyzes a set of pamphlets from the Petroleum Industry School Program that were distributed by the American Petroleum Institute (API), the trade organization that promotes the US oil industry. It first describes the evolution of support for and opposition to the o…

Journalism and Translation in the Era of Convergence
How has convergence affected news and translation? Convergence is a chameleon, taking a new colour in each new context, from the integrated, bilingual newsroom of a legacy broadcaster to a newsroom in an outlet that has embraced multimodality from the very start. And yet, translation scholars studying the news have ignored convergence, while media scholars studying convergence have ignored translation. They have missed the fact that convergence i…
What Is Cultural Translation
Review of the book "What Is Cultural Translation?" by Sarah Maitland
The Meanings of “Multicultural” in Canada’s 1991 Broadcasting Act
Background Despite Canada’s policies on multiculturalism, there continues to be a dearth of minorities on Canadian television screens, in part because the idea of multiculturalism has long been contested.Analysis This article describes the term’s competing meanings by examining the debates about Bill C-40, which became the Broadcasting Act, between its introduction in Parliament in October 1989 and its passage into law in February 1991.Conclusion…
Hospitality and religious diversity, or, when is home not a home
Recent debates about hospitality and religious diversity frequently hinge on unspoken notions of home. This is especially true in the Canadian province of Quebec, where citizens have worked to establish a secular state after a history of domination by the Catholic Church. In the last two decades, as religious minorities have grown, controversy has arisen about requests for accommodations made on religious grounds. Here I examine responses to thos…
What is the role of culture in news translation? A materialist approach
Three approaches have characterized the study of news translation, but none have given a satisfactory account of the role of culture. The first, drawn from political economy, asks how and where news travels. The second, from linguistics, asks how journalists deal with lexical or stylistic concerns. The third, from sociology and cultural studies, asks how journalists understand their role in society. All three, however, employ terms such as ‘cultu…
News translation and culture
This special issue of Perspectives is about news translation and culture.The topic is deceptively complex.In The Moving Text, Anthony Pym (2004, p. 4) writes: 'The foreign news we read in the local press can legitimately be seen as a localization of foreign-language texts, at some point transformed by the international agencies, and transformed in ways that go beyond endemic notions of translation'.It is an offhand comment, an illustration of a l…
Vagaries of News Translation on Canadian Broadcasting Corporation Television
This article describes a series of failed attempts by the English and French networks of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation to present translated news. On one level, it is concerned with the impulse that prompts people during moments of crisis to suggest translated news as a solution to a problems related to Canadian identity and the reasons their suggestions to translate news programs are not acted upon. On a deeper level, it is concerned wit…

Cultural Translation, Long-form Journalism, and Readers’ Responses to the Muslim Veil
This article examines, first, news translation as a form of cultural translation, and, second, readers’ responses to this mode of journalism. In particular, it examines the series Derrière le voile... des femmes , published in May 2010 by Radio-Canada.ca, through the lens of Hans-Georg Gadamer’s discussion of the I-Thou relationship, looking first at the stories in the series and then at readers’ comments. This series explained why some Muslim wo…
Quebec's Bill 94
On March 24, 2010, Justice Minister Kathleen Weil introduced Bill 94, called An Act to Establish Guidelines Governing Accommodation Requests Within the Administration and Certain Institutions, in Quebec's National Assembly. If passed, the bill would limit Muslim women's ability to wear a face veil when requesting services from the government. Examination of the 51 briefs submitted to the National Assembly by members of the public in May, October,…
La traduction qui n’en est pas une
Le présent article parle de la traduction dans trois sens du mot : l’acte de traduire, le produit de cet acte et les mots qu’on emploie comme outils pour accomplir cet acte. Il examine les rapports entre ces trois sens pour décrire trois paradoxes touchant à la traduction journalistique. Le premier : la traduction des nouvelles (c’est-à-dire l’acte lui-même) ne produit aucune traduction comme telle (c’est-à-dire aucun texte cible). Le deuxième : …
Cultural translation, global television studies, and the circulation of telenovelas in the United States
‘Cultural translation’ is a metaphor whose currency is increasing in the broad field of cultural studies, but it has largely been neglected in narrower field of television studies. This article brings cultural translation to television studies by proposing an approach to describe how the industrial logics that govern the global circulation of programs also shape them as texts. It then uses this approach to explain the circulation of telenovelas i…
News Translation and Cultural Resistance
News translation, which takes many forms, encounters two types of cultural resistance that hinder intercultural understanding. The first is apparent in the need to transform a text in order to make it meaningful in a new context, while the second results from the irreducibility of culture as a way of life to the form of a text. This article illustrates both forms of resistance by analyzing a story originally broadcast on The National in Canada in…

Assessing Apparently Equivalent Translations in the News Media
This essay represents a preliminary attempt to devise a method for examining words and their apparently equivalent translations as they appear in the news media. Taking Walter Benjamin’s essay on the task of the translator as a starting point and drawing on Edmund Husserl’s phenomenology and Antoine Culioli’s and Paul Laurendeau’s enunciative linguistics, the author argues that this appearance of equivalence is deceptive, for at least two reasons…
Heading South to Make It Big
For scholars and policy-makers anxious about questions of national identity, the standard narrative describing the flow of television programming across the U.S.-Canadian border is of an invasion from the south. After all, as Michael Koch explains, Canada shares a border of over 5000 kilometres with the United States, and 90 percent of Canada's population lives within 100 kilometres of that border. As a consequence of this proximity, the prodigio…
