The first section looks at some of the most salient international publications regarding political discourse in Europe, the Americas and Arab countries.

Next, we provide an overview of the role of politics and translation in news production, as three of the articles in this issue analyse different aspects and genres of journalistic translation. Taken as a whole, this special issue aims to contribute to the debate on the interface between translation and political discourse in the Chinese context.
