WORKSHOP ORGANIZATION, 10 MAY 2023

In part 1, and following the organizers’ thematic introduction, we will begin with short 10-minute positioning papers. Framing their case with a cultural and critical theory stance, each positioning paper will present one theoretically-framed concrete scenario surrounding digital translation work in posthuman multilingual societies. We welcome abstracts for positioning papers on any concrete scenarios or case studies. In part 2, each previous presenter will react to one of the previously discussed scenarios and its theoretical framings by presenting one critical 5-minute reflection. The concluding panel discussion in part 3 will further encourage interdisciplinary debate by bringing all the relevant themes and connections together.
