Rezensionen

In the contributors' chapters, the readers are handed the most precious gift for any researcher: many unanswered questions and urgent topics to investigate. In fact, this Handbook benefits from the contributions of both established and expert researchers as well as new and original thinkers, who collectively encourage readers to explore a wide range of cogent and relevant topics. These encompass everything from conceptualisations of crises in multicultural and multilingual contexts, to addressing the practical yet often formidable challenges related to legal frameworks in local and international crises. Additionally, the Handbook delves into important considerations concerning the daily constraints confronted by practitioners operating in the international humanitarian and crisis- response sector. The editors elegantly managed to collate chapters that give voice to many often- marginalised regions and communities. This is a feat as decolonising and differentiating the field is among the key challenges in this area of Translation and Interpreting Studies: readers will find that this Handbook is a significant step in that direction.
