Lifestyle Politics in Translation: The Shaping and Re-Shaping of Ideological Discourse (Routledge Advances in Translation and Interpreting Studies)
- Drawing on a unique interdisciplinary perspective, integrating work from translation studies and linguistics with political science and economics, and applying it to English and French versions of the same documents, this book calls attention to stark ideological differences across versions.
- This book sheds light on our increasingly globalized world by demonstrating the ways in which globalized discourse undergoes processes of depoliticization and marketization, in turn producing a trickle-down effect on individuals' personal identities.
