Translation and Global Asia: Relocating Cultural Production Network is a collection of conference papers from The Fourth Asian Translation Traditions Conference held in Hong Kong in 2010. The aim of the conference was to explore the richness and diversity of non-Western discourses and practices of translation, focusing on translational exchanges among non-Western languages and the changes and continuity in Asian translation traditions. The eleven papers selected from the sixty papers presented at the conference, then edited and revised, give insights into the translation traditions of various Asian countries. They cover topics such as literary translation, translation history, and translation and colonialism.
