TRANSLATION UNDER COMMUNISM GEBUNDEN

This book examines the history of translation under European communism  bringing together
studies on the Soviet Union  including Russia and Ukraine  Yugoslavia  Hungary  East Germany 
Czechoslovakia  Bulgaria  and Poland. In any totalitarian regime maintaining control over
cultural exchange is strategically important  so studying these regimes from the perspective of
translation can provide a unique insight into their history and into the nature of their power.
This book is intended as a sister volume to Translation Under Fascism (Palgrave Macmillan 
2010) and adopts a similar approach of using translation as a lens through which to examine
history. With a strong interdisciplinary focus  it will appeal to students and scholars of
translation studies  translation history  censorship  translation and ideology  and public
policy  as well as cultural and literary historians of Eastern Europe  Soviet communism  and
the Cold War period.
