商务翻译中译者伦理的平衡统一

On the Integration of Ethical Choices of Business Translation

目前翻译研究的伦理转向集中于译者伦理的讨论,包括职业伦理和个人伦理。职业化翻译的最大需求为商务翻译,商务翻译作为一种商业行为是为某一客户而提供的、针对既定接受者的一项职业性服务。从事商务翻译的译者,其伦理选择不仅包括译者职业伦理和个人伦理,而且包括商务伦理。商务伦理是译者一定要遵循的规定;职业伦理往往是职业的规范,是大多数人所遵循的规则,但有时会与其他伦理相冲突;而译者的个人伦理体现了译者个人的翻译观念,是动态变化的伦理。商务翻译行为应当是商务伦理、个人伦理和职业伦理的动态统一。
