In addition to your professional experience in SOCIOINT 2016, you will be able to enjoy one of the most impressive cities in the world, Istanbul, unique for its culture, historical and artistic richness, cultural and musical events of all kinds, lovely weather in autumn and tasty gastronomy.

Istanbul is one of the world's great cities famous for its historical monuments and magnificent scenic beauties. It is the only city in the world which spreads over two continents: it lies at a point where Asia and Europe are separated by a narrow strait - the Bosphorus. Istanbul has a history of over 2,500 years, and ever since its establishment on this strategic junction of lands and seas, the city has been a crucial trade center.

We look forward to seeing you in Istanbul

Conference theme
Conflicting Ideologies and Cultural Mediation
– Hearing, Interpreting, Translating Global Voices
The Asian Translation Traditions series started at SOAS in 2004 as a workshop, since followed by regular conferences. It has greatly contributed to raising awareness of different views on translation theory and practice and to shaping non-Western Translation Studies.
After more than a decade it is time to take stock, to ask what has been achieved and where yet-untapped opportunities lie.
Recently we have witnessed increasing ideological conflict among and within societies. ATT8 asks whether and how translation can help mediate between ideologies and contribute to constructive dialogue among cultures.
Over two thousand languages are spoken in Asia, and its peoples have different value systems, beliefs and customs.Translation therefore plays a crucial role in letting people hear and understand each other’s voices and in making dialogue possible.
At the same time, it is now well established that translators manipulate the ‘original’ (including utterances) and intervene in translations for their own reasons. These can include conscious and internalized agendas relating to gender, post-colonial, or other political issues.
While discussing conflicting ideologies and cultural mediation at this conference, we also seek to promote development of translation theories based on Asian practices in order to contribute to the development of global Translation Studies.


Examples of indicative session themes
Localization vs globalization of translation theories and practices
Translation for mediation and dialogue
Translation of orality, oral narratives, or oral literature
Translation of endangered and minority languages
