ИСТИНА

The Fifth COSINES Pi is a juncture of interests and a vibrant point of new development in the area of professional multicultural interlanguage communication. Professional interpreters, translators, journalists and businessmen will assemble to discuss cutting-edge topics of intercultural communication and to explore the innovative ways of keeping our profession on the solid ground of sustainable development in the 21st century. This year the Conference the Fifth COSINES Pi is organised by the Faculty of Philology in cooperation with the Faculty of Economics, the Higher School of Translation and Interpreting, and the Faculty of Journalism. The range of aspects to be addressed at the Fifth COSINES Pi fully embraces the challenges and suggests some solutions for translation in journalism, business interaction and changing cultural paradigms. In the era of globalization, new media and interactive technologies have triggered an exponential increase in translation as a key mediator in cross-language communication. Staying positive with this, the inherent interdisciplinary demand of translation studies and the defining characteristics of journalism to obtain original information make the multidisciplinary fusion between translation, journalism, business, and politics more than logical, appropriate and timing.
