The movement and exchange of translated texts and ideas across different cultures and languages is the focus of Translation Flows: Exploring Networks of People, Processes and Products. The volume offers a comprehensive exploration of a topic that has garnered scholarly interest since the emergence of a sociology of translation (e.g., Wolf and Fukari 2007; Angelelli 2014; Van Doorslaer and McMartin 2022). It brings together a collection of both empirically and theoretically focused contributions on translation flows by scholars from Europe, South Africa, Singapore, Turkey, and the United States, thus providing perspectives from both the Global North and the Global South. The topics cover a range of genres, including literary texts, historical narratives, political discourses, and audiovisual resources.
