Abstract
This paper focuses on the following questions. The first question deals with what community interpreting exactly covers. The second question elaborates on the different philosophical approaches to community interpreting and how they affect the task of the community interpreter. Next, it wonders whether the methods of selecting, training and using community interpreters are less ‘ad hoc’ today. Finally, it looks into where the profession is heading.
