This article first summarizes the main viewpoints at“Forum on the Construction of Socio-Translation Studies in China”from the theoretical and application researches,discipline construction and methodology exploration.Then it reviews the research achievements of China’s socio-translation studies in the past two decades,summarizes some existing problems,and proposes possibilities in the future.The co-authors believe that socio-translation studies in China should follow the approach of“methodology—theory—application—discipline”.It should explore the external phenomena and internal laws of translation activities from the perspective of sociology by adopting methods of different paradigms,construct theoretical frameworks through theoretical speculation based on the original theories in China while drawing on theoretical insights from the West and integrating multidisciplinary theories,and then apply theories to the corresponding practices so as to establish the research paradigm and construct the discipline of China’s Socio-Translation Studies.
