interpretação, tradução, julgamento de crimes de Guerra, Radovan Karadžić, dinâmica de poder.Resumo
Cada palavra dita nos depoimentos durante os julgamentos dos crimes de guerra ocorridos na antiga Iugoslávia foi transcrita e gravada, traduzida e interpretada para outras línguas. Este contexto conferiu às tradutoras uma visibilidade incomum. Suas escolhas terminológicas, de organização frasal e o tom eram debatidos e até mesmo acaloradamente contestados em cada sessão desses estendidos julgamentos em que a equipe de línguas, por sua vez era convocada a justificar suas escolhas oficialmente. Radovan Karadžić, antigo presidente da Republika Srpska, parte integrante da Bósnia e Herzegovina, decidiu fazer sua própria defesa depois de ter sido preso e acusado de crimes de guerra. Tinha conhecimento suficiente do inglês para acompanhar de perto a tradução feita nas cabines. Seus desentendimentos com os profissionais de língua eram frequentes e tensos, transformando a relação entre Karadžić e os intérpretes em um verdadeiro duelo.
