The Routledge Handbook of Translation and Ethics provides a comprehensive exploration of the ethical dimensions of translation and interpretation. Spanning 31 chapters, authored by esteemed scholars and emerging voices in the field, the handbook delves into a wide range of emerging issues, including the increasing technologization of translation, posthumanism, volunteering and activism, accessibility, and linguistic human rights. Each chapter offers an extensive overview of its respective topic or presents fresh perspectives on established areas, making it an invaluable resource for students and researchers in translation and ethics, multilingualism, and comparative literature.

The handbook is organized into four parts, each addressing different aspects of ethical considerations in translation and interpretation. Part I explores the foundational ethical theories that guide translation practice. Part II examines the ethical dilemmas faced by translators and interpreters operating in various contexts, such as healthcare, legal, and humanitarian settings. Part III critically assesses the central institutions that shape and regulate ethical behavior in the field, such as translation agencies, professional associations, and academic institutions. Part IV focuses on specific issues and emerging challenges, highlighting new directions for future research in the area.

This handbook is a must-have resource for anyone interested in advancing their understanding of the ethical implications of translation and interpretation. It offers a comprehensive and interdisciplinary approach, drawing on insights from philosophy, linguistics, cultural studies, and other relevant disciplines. By examining the complex interplay between language, power, and social justice, the handbook provides valuable insights into the ethical responsibilities of translators and interpreters and their role in promoting ethical practices in the field.
