«Translation and Conflict: A Narrative Account» is Mona Baker's essay on translation and conflict, in Routledge paperback (220 pages, English).
Drawing on narrative theory, Mona Baker shows that translators and interpreters are not neutral: they spread or resist the narratives that fuel violent conflicts. With examples such as Guantánamo, Iraq or Kosovo, she analyses divided loyalties, domination and resistance, and addresses translation and interpreting.
First edition published in 2006, with index and bibliographic references. Includes research questions and further reading suggestions at the end of each chapter.
For students of translation, intercultural studies and sociology, and for readers interested in social and political movements.
