Political translations

Did you know that ...

... the German term "Verordnung" is ambiguous and thus the translator needs to determine whether it refers to a statutory order issued by either the government or an authority at Federal level or at State (Land) level or whether it refers to a legal instrument (regulation) of the European Community?

Political structures, ideas and processes vary from country to country. Making them comprehensible to readers from different political systems poses special challenges for translators. After concentrating on international politics and political structures in my study course, Political Science, and voluntary work for a non-governmental organization for several years, your translations on political issues - including corporate policy - are in safe hands.
