Translation and Discourse as (Non)Discrimination
A realistic view of the past should provide a critical understanding of the present, in which discourse producers (including translators and interpreters) must be seen in their socio-political, cultural context.

This volume aims to provide an updated overview of the many facets of intercultural communication and its realities.
