Translating the Neighbourhood: Migration, dialogue and spaces of translation in the 21st century

National University of Ireland, Galway (NUIG)

28-29 May, 2020

This conference is specifically preoccupied with translation in society and beyond the text: translation as the managing of difference, a tool for inclusion or exclusion within the context of the contemporary urban space. As a multi-disciplinary, multi-media event, the conference intends to explore the different instances where people perform translation on the social stage in response to the many challenges and stimuli of 21st century globalization. Some of these translations are performed by professionals, some by non-professionals; some are intended to impact policy or contribute to a public debate, while others may last the short space of an oral exchange.

Call for papers deadline: January 10, 2020
