Reviews

""Ultimately, The Social Impact of Automating Translation serves as a call to action for scholars, practitioners, and policymakers to reimagine the development and deployment ofMT systems. By centering care ethics and critically challenging dominant ideologies, the collective volume offers a framework for fostering inclusivity, equity, and democratic values. Readers are encouraged to build on the insights offered in this volume, transforming its vision into tangible actions that shape a more just and inclusive future for translation technologies."" María Lomeña-Galiano, Université de Rennes ""Through in-depth case studies and critical analyses, the authors of this volume shed light on the often- overlooked consequences of MT. This exploration is not only timely but also crucial for shaping a more equitable future for translation technology. Overall, this book is highly recommended for anyone interested in understanding the social implications of MT and the challenges and opportunities it presents.""
