Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book scrutinizes how contemporary practices of security have come to rely on many different translations of security, risk, and danger. Institutions of national security policies are currently undergoing radical conceptual and organisational changes, and this book presents a novel approach for how to study and politically address the new situation. Complex and uncertain threat environments, such as terrorism, climate change, and the global financial crisis, have paved the way for new forms of security governance that have profoundly transformed the ways in which threats are handled today. Crucially, there is a decentralisation of the management of security, which is increasingly handled by a broad set of societal actors that previously were not considered powerful in the conduct of security affairs. This transformation of security knowledge and management changes the meaning of traditional concepts and practices, and calls for investigation into the many meanings of security implied when contemporary societies manage radical dangers, risks, and threats. It is necessary to study both what these meanings are and how they developed from the security practices of the past. Addressing this knowledge gap, the book asks how different ideas about threats, risk, and dangers meet in the current practices of security, broadly understood, and with what political consequences. This book will be of interest to students of critical security studies, anthropology, risk studies, science and technology studies and International Relations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Community translation or public service translation is on a global scale often unregulated and dependent on individual awareness, good will and even charity work. The social impact and mission of community translation, the key role of the translator’s psycho-sociocultural awareness and its role depending on local and global changes in human migration and linguistic diversity make community translation a constantly evolving and yet under-investigated activity and profession. This book covers key practical and theoretical approaches towards community translation, providing insights into the current state of the field and the latest research, trends, guidelines, initiatives and gaps. Combining knowledge in the areas of translator ethics, pedagogy, legal, and social and health-related settings, this volume covers community translation in a wide range of countries and regions.

Download or read book Introduction to Google Translate written by Gilad James, PhD and published by Gilad James Mystery School. This book was released on with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Google Translate is a multilingual translation service provided by Google. It allows users to translate words, phrases, and entire documents between multiple languages. The service was launched in April 2006 and has since been constantly updated to provide more accurate translations. Initially offering translations in only two languages, Google Translate now supports over 100 languages. The translation process works by analyzing the text or document input by the user, breaking it up into smaller segments, and then using statistical algorithms to match these segments with translations from its database. Google Translate has been a helpful tool for people to communicate across different languages, whether it be for business or personal use. However, it must be noted that automated translations often carry a high risk of inaccuracies due to the complexities inherent in language and the nuances of different cultures and contexts. It is always recommended to use translations as a starting point, and then have a native speaker review and refine the language to ensure accuracy.
Download or read book Secular Translations written by Talal Asad and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2018-12-04 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Secular Translations, the anthropologist Talal Asad reflects on his lifelong engagement with secularism and its contradictions. He draws out the ambiguities in our concepts of the religious and the secular through a rich consideration of translatability and untranslatability, exploring the circuitous movements of ideas between histories and cultures. In search of meeting points between the language of Islam and the language of secular reason, Asad gives particular importance to the translations of religious ideas into nonreligious ones. He discusses the claim that liberal conceptions of equality represent earlier Christian ideas translated into secularism; explores the ways that the language and practice of religious ritual play an important but radically transformed role as they are translated into modern life; and considers the history of the idea of the self and its centrality to the project of the secular state. Secularism is not only an abstract principle that modern liberal democratic states espouse, he argues, but also a range of sensibilities. The shifting vocabularies associated with each of these sensibilities are fundamentally intertwined with different ways of life. In exploring these entanglements, Asad shows how translation opens the door for—or requires—the utter transformation of the translated. Drawing on a diverse set of thinkers ranging from al-Ghazālī to Walter Benjamin, Secular Translations points toward new possibilities for intercultural communication, seeking a language for our time beyond the language of the state.
