Beskrivning

"In these uncertain times, when Artificial Intelligence appears to challenge the very foundations of Translation Studies, this book stands as a landmark reference for anyone interested in business and financial translation, a specialisation that continues to gain importance in the industry. The qualitative and quantitative data analysed in it will allow readers to see what has been studied so far and to identify the key areas of research that still need to be further explored." – Professor Elena Alcalde Peñalver, University of AlcaláBusiness translation has evolved into a rich and diverse field at the crossroads of language, economics, and global communication. This book offers an in-depth exploration of how this specialised field has been studied across Europe, tracing its development through more than 1,500 academic contributions. Drawing on sources such as BITRA, Scopus, and Google Scholar, it examines key themes and emerging trends, highlighting the range of voices, institutions, and approaches that shape the field. Through a careful and critical lens, the book reveals patterns in research output and opens up new perspectives on translation in specialised economic contexts.
