    OverviewEn 1979, la revue Meta publiait, sous la direction de Jean-Claude Gémar, un numéro spécial consacré, pour une première fois, à la traduction juridique comme activité et discipline autonomes au sein de la jeune traductologie [8].

    One of the core issues in contemporary political philosophy is concerned with `political obligation.'

Despite this agreement about the general nature (...)
