讲座内容简介：
Due to the differences in the history, cultural development, legal regime and language, the countries in Europe and, in particular, the European Union began several decades ago to harmonize standards and norms applicable to legal translation and interpreting in order to create uniform quality standards and facilitate cross-border exchanges. The presentation will describe the wide range of judicial and administrative settings where legal translation and interpreting services are required. The author will also present the different types of regimes established for the provision of legal translation and interpreting services especially in EU Member States. In a third section of the paper, the presenter will give an outline of the qualifications regarded as essential for legal translators and interpreters if their performance is to meet the high quality standards required for fair and equitable proceedings.
