Schedlitzki, Doris, Ciuk, Sylwia, Edwards, Gareth, Gaggiotti, Hugo and Shortt, Harriet (2025) Drawing on translation studies to advance cross-language research in organisation studies: enriching transdisciplinary dialogue. Translation in Society. ISSN 2667-3045 (In Press)
Despite longstanding calls for more transdisciplinary dialogue, there is still much to be gained from a closer collaboration between Translation and Organisation Studies scholars. In this paper, we discuss how insights from Translation Studies can help advance cross-language research in Organisation Studies. We demonstrate how Translation Studies can provide valuable theoretical approaches, as well as concrete conceptual and methodological tools, to enrich the study of the movement and transformation of ideas and practices across cultures and languages. We also unpack how the nuanced approaches to translation developed in Translation Studies can be used to enhance what we call ‘translatorial awareness’ in Organisation Studies. This has significant implications for scholars, not only for designing, conducting and reporting cross-language research but also for theorising. We conclude by suggesting how Translation Studies scholars might seek motivation from our paper to engage in transdisciplinary work with Organisation Studies scholars and other Social Science disciplines.
