Description

This book investigates the market-driven transformation of the higher education sector and the response given by the translation programmes in the UK and China, two vastly different social and economic contexts. It provides an in-depth look at six selected case studies, critically analysing how social, economic, and political factors have affect curriculum designs in different translation programmes. This innovative volume contributes to the development of knowledge in an important area of translation studies and opens a new way for providing both cross-national and cross-disciplinary perspectives in analysing the curricula of translation programmes. Review “A very useful reference for those who are interested in comparing MA/MTI translation education between China and the UK.” (Defeng Li, Director & Professor of Translation Studies, University of Macau, Macau) “This is an important study that for the first time assesses translation curriculum content in relation to market needs, both in China and in the West, pointing towards new ways of connecting academia and the market in this field. Essential reading for those delivering translation programmes.” (Maike Oergel, Associate Professor of German, University of Nottingham, UK) “This book provides us with an excellent and timely investigation into how neo-liberal economic globalization processes differentially influences UK and Chinese translation programs.” (Juliane House, Professor Emerita, University of Hamburg, Germany) From the Back Cover This book investigates the market-driven transformation of the higher education sector and the response given by the translation programmes in the UK and China, two vastly different social and economic contexts.
