About the Journal
INContext is a unique international and interdisciplinary journal that encourages innovative research in language-related subjects, including but not limited to technical or literary translation and conference interpretation as well as intercultural issues.
Aim and Scope
INContext is a unique international and interdisciplinary peer-reviewed journal that marries Translation Studies and Interculturalism on a single platform. The Journal offers a significant forum for innovative research in language-related subjects, including but not limited to technical, scientific, and literary translation and conference interpretation, as well as intercultural issues such as cultural studies, gender studies, race, and cultural identity.
As a collaborative journal bringing together the Korean Association for Public Sector Translation and Interpretation (KAPTI), the Language and Intercultural Studies Institute (LISI), Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM) and the Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU), it encourages international and inter-continental collaboration in research related to Translation Studies and Interculturalism, including innovative research methodology, meta-theoretical reviews of theoretical formulations, exploration of cutting-edge approaches, and macro-level inquiry into cultural assumptions.
The Journal publishes two regular issues per volume and occasional special issues. It welcomes submissions of research articles, in-depth interviews, and book reviews, among a variety of scholarly communication forms, as well as proposals for special issues.
