The Soldiers of Odin Finland : From a local movement to an international franchise
2019
This chapter analyzes the growth of the Soldier of Odin Finland from a local phenomenon to an international movement, exploring the reasons behind both the success of the SOO, and its later decline in Finland as well as internationally. Additionally, the chapter describes the connections of the SOO with the Finnish extreme right and competition they had with other street patrol organizations. It scrutinizes the rhetoric they use and the ideology they share, and analyzes profiles of SOO leaders in Finland. The chapter is based on data drawn from interviews with Soldiers of Odin and other street patrol groups, police and court files, and online observation. peerReviewed

The conversion of the atom : nuclear science and ideology in Francoist Spain
2016
At the beginning of the atomic age, Francoist Spain launched an expensive project to develop, research and use nuclear energy. Scientists, the military and high-ranking officials in the administration mobilised to materialise a technoscientific dream with an international scope. The modernity of nuclear science contrasts with the reactionary ideology of the regime, but the paradox is only apparent because until now there has not necessarily been any historical relationship between science and democracy. The drive towards nuclear technoscience reveals the mutual construction of science and politics during the Cold War era and the different ways to appropriate and exploit the atom during the …
Narrativa dei Caraibi nel nuovo millennio
2020
L’etichetta “Letterature franco-caraibica” utilizzata, per convenzione, dalla critica per indicare unitariamente la produzione letteraria in lingua francese della regione centrale del Continente americano è assai impropria. La regione dei Caraibi abbraccia, infatti, sia alcune delle isole dell’arcipelago delle Piccole Antille (Martinica, Guadalupa), sia l’isola di Haïti, che fa parte delle Grandi Antille, che la Guiana incastonata sulla costa orientale dell’America meridionale. Pur nella diversità dei movimenti ideologici e degli avvenimenti storici che si sono succeduti nella regione, le opere letterarie degli scrittori caraibici francofoni, nel loro insieme, hanno oscillato, e continuano …
Caraibi: un "archipel inachevé"

Realitat, fantasia i ideologia en la poètica de Pere Calders
2019
This paper analyses the value and meaning of the concepts "reality" and "fantasy" in Pere Calders' literary world, as the foundations of a literary attitude upholding the imaginary and the fantastic and facing realistic literature of committed or testimonial nature. Secondly, it analyses the author's critiques of positivist scientism and his claim of art and literature as gnoseological alternatives. The analysis of two short stories completes the ideological approach to Calders' oeuvre: "The First Harlequin", as opposed to religious thinking, and "The Streak and the Wish" [1], as a metaphoric view of Catalonian exile.[1] Traducció del títol a càrrec de Mara Faye Lethem.

(Re-)examining horizons in feminist translation studies: towards a third wave
2009
This article is an English version of "(Re)examinando horizontes en los estudios feministas de traducción: ¿hacia una tercera ola?" by Olga Castro, which was first published in MonTI 1 (2009), pp. 59-86. It was not included on the print version of MonTI for reasons of space. The online version of MonTI does not suffer from these limitations, and this is our way of promoting plurilingualism and internationalism. Feminisms are one of those framework theories that have contributed powerfully to all areas of society, including Translation Studies. The most evident outcome of this interplay is the emergence, in the 1980s, of a Feminist Translation school in Canada, which placed gender in the spo…
Usos lingüístics i ideologia: què fan els universitaris valencians?
2016
Resum: L’article analitza la relació entre el posicionament ideològic dels estudiants universitaris valencians i el seu comportament lingüístic. A més de l’eix tradicional esquerra-dreta, l’autodefinició ideològica requerida inclou també la identificació nacional-regional i la postura sobre la unitat de la llengua catalana, objectes de disputa ideològica sempre latent, ara i adés explícita, al País Valencià. Els usos lingüístics són també plurals i diversos; de fet, un punt d’interés remarcable és la correlació entre els més lligats a l’hàbit o als contextos de proximitat i els més intencionals o de relació secundària. És en aquests darrers on les idees poden tindre un paper més determinant…
A vueltas con la traducción en el siglo XXI
2009
El concepto de traducción ha cambiado muchísimo durante las últimas décadas: hemos pasado de la equivalencia absoluta a la ampliación de la definición de este campo hasta límites a veces insospechados. Y es que, efectivamente, la traducción es siempre reflejo del tipo de sociedad que la genera, así que no es de extrañar que una cultura como la occidental, contradictoria, híbrida, enriquecida por las migraciones pero también cargada de problemas por los choques interculturales, ofrezca una definición de traducción que es ahora un proceso nunca neutro y éticamente complejo. Las distintas teorías contemporáneas ayudan mucho a reflexionar sobre todo ello, y reflejan las elecciones que como trad…
Rethinking translation in the 21st century
2009
In the latest decades the concept of translation has dramatically changed: we have gone from absolute equivalence to a widening of the definition of this field which sometimes reaches unforeseen limits. Translation certainly reflects the kind of society which produces it and, thus, it is hardly surprising that a culture like the western one – contradictory, hybrid and enriched thanks to migration but at the same time burdened with problems arising from cross-cultural clashes – offers a definition of translation as a never-neutral and ethically-complex process. The different current theories provide much help when pondering over these issues and reflect the choices which we, translators, con…
