Abstract
This chapter investigates the epistemological and ontological evolution of the paradigm translation as intercultural mediation. It sketches the trend toward broadening the notion of translation to embrace the cultural dimension crucial to developments in Translation Studies and Intercultural Mediation. The complex interconnectedness between translation and culture is here understood as a core feature of the interface between translation and intercultural mediation. This is then explored, drawing upon the literature in intercultural communication (ten Thije 2020). Strengths and limitations of the paradigm are also discussed by challenging the assumption that neutrality is—or can ever be—an inherent characteristic of mediation.
