It 18 employs a team of fulltime professional simultaneous interpreters while it also engages parttime interpreters regularly to meet the heavy demands for simultaneous interpretation service in Cantonese / Putonghua / English within the Government. The presentation seeks to give an overview of the simultaneous interpretation service of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) Government. It covers various aspects of the service such as the entry requirements, recruitment procedure, pay and conditions of service, performance appraisal, professional ethics, professional development and so on. The aim is to share with the interpretation profession on the Mainland the experience of the HKSAR Government in establishing and managing simultaneous interpretation as a professional service within the Government. 1. 4: Defending Collective Professional Values: AIIC’s response to the US Federal Trade Commission’s Attack on Translator and Interpreter Associations Luigi Luccarelli AIIC In the early 1990?s the United States? petition authority, the Federal Trade Commission, undertook an investigation of translator and interpreter associations. The FTC lawyers reached the conclusion that several associations were in violation of petition law and must be made to change for the purported good of the market. Their allegations of price fixing, however, went beyond pure moary considerations and into the realm of interpreter working conditions and professional ethics. In this Goliath vs. David scenario, most associations buckled under and signed consent orders. The International Association of Conference Interpreters (AIIC), however, decided to contest the allegations – and indeed the suppositions underlying them – embarking upon what was to bee a 5year defense of professional principles. The paper will begin by reviewing what is meant by professionalization and by identifying certain core elements relevant to our field. It will then examine the factors ands events that lead to the investigation and their significance to our profession. The FTC?s arguments will be analyzed within their historical context. AIIC?s response will be explained with emphasis on the association?s defense of 19 professional ethics and standards as inherent virtues that make a positive contribution to the market and must be the foundation of any profession. Specific examples will be offered to illustrate how core professional values were put forward to counter the purely mercial approach of the FTC lawyers. Attention will also be given to what makes an association “professional” and what the existence of an association that focuses on the mon good of both members and nonmembers means for a growing profession. The final oute of the case, favorable to AIIC?s contention that its professional and ethical provisions were perfectly within the law (indeed are propetitive), will also be analyzed in the context of the professionalization of conference interpreting, with attention to the selfregulatory role of a professional anization. The case also led AIIC to closely examine its own thinking. The changes initiated as a result will be outlined and examined as a necessary evolution in a field in danger of overmercialization, modification and deprofessionalization. The author was USA representative on the governing council of AIIC for the duration of the proceedings (199498) and VicePresident the last two of those years. He was charged with liaising with AIIC?s attorneys and coordinating with its secretariat in Geneva. He attended all hearings, went through a grueling 2day deposition, and was a principal witness on behalf of the association. 1. 5: 職業(yè)口譯的專業(yè)素質(zhì)與職業(yè)道德 —— 歐洲翻譯市場上的中文職業(yè)口譯 Professionalism and Ethics: Chinese Interpreters in Europe 李 楓 AIIC 口譯作為跨語言，跨文化交際的職業(yè)活動，即具有自身的專業(yè)特點(diǎn)與規(guī)律，又與其所處的時代背景緊密相連。中國近年來興起的新一輪翻譯高潮中，首次將口譯推上前臺，賦予其前所未有的 重要位置，這顯然與信息時代與全球化發(fā)展的大背景密不可分， 而市場經(jīng)濟(jì)與市場需求則起著推波助瀾的作用。這是一個極好的契機(jī)，它不僅給口譯員提供了施展才能的大舞臺，更有助于進(jìn)一步推動我國口譯職業(yè)化，專業(yè)化的全面發(fā)展。 但這同時也是一個巨大的挑戰(zhàn)，因?yàn)殡S著社會地位，經(jīng)濟(jì)效益的提高，口譯人員加強(qiáng)自身專業(yè)素質(zhì)與職業(yè)道德， 20 將直接影響這一新興行業(yè)的未來。對于提高職業(yè)口譯自身專業(yè)素質(zhì)，加強(qiáng)口譯行業(yè)的規(guī)范化、職業(yè)化水平的問題，不僅業(yè)內(nèi)人士通過長期實(shí)踐對其重要性深有體會，同時也日益引起理論研究人員的重視。 出于上述理念，筆者在 本篇論文中，以一特定群體 — — 活躍在歐洲翻譯市場的中文職業(yè)口譯為例， 從參與信息交流，恪守服務(wù)規(guī)范，以及達(dá)到國際標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的專業(yè)化培訓(xùn)等不同角度，論述口譯人員必須具備的專業(yè)素質(zhì)與職業(yè)道德 ： A. 信息傳遞兩大要素 （ 1. 信息內(nèi)容的完整性和準(zhǔn)確性； 2. 傳遞信道的安全和暢通 ）與口譯員必須具備的專業(yè)素質(zhì)； B. 口譯服務(wù)三個關(guān)系的處理 （ 1. 作為信息交流的特殊參與者，口譯員與交流主體 — 信息內(nèi)容與信息輸出者之間 — 的關(guān)系； 2 . 口譯員與市場（客戶）的關(guān)系； 3. 譯員之間的協(xié)作關(guān)系）與口譯員的職業(yè)道德 ； C. 發(fā) 展達(dá)到國際專業(yè)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的專業(yè)培訓(xùn)是推動口譯職業(yè)化、專業(yè)化的關(guān)鍵， 而國際現(xiàn)有的專業(yè)協(xié)會，如 AIIC，則是推動、監(jiān)督這一進(jìn)程的有效機(jī)制。 1. 6: 國際口譯規(guī)范與我國口譯行業(yè)的規(guī)范化 Interpreting Standards: International Practice and Development in China 馮建中 南京國際關(guān)系學(xué)院 改革開放以來，我國對口譯人才的需要量大幅度增長，口譯行業(yè)迅猛發(fā)展。受高薪和優(yōu)厚待遇的誘惑，投入口譯 行業(yè)者趨之若鶩。有關(guān)高校和社會培訓(xùn)機(jī)構(gòu)則受市場和高額利潤的驅(qū)動，不失時機(jī)地開設(shè)口譯培訓(xùn)，翻譯公司林立，口譯市場一片繁榮。然而，細(xì)觀之下，可以發(fā)現(xiàn)我國口譯行業(yè)存在著眾多的問題，其中最突出的問題之一即是口譯行業(yè)存在的一定程度的失范現(xiàn)象。為什幺會存在這種失范現(xiàn)象？如何控制和解決這一問題？文章從我國社會轉(zhuǎn)型、行業(yè)發(fā)展規(guī)律、個人職業(yè)素質(zhì)和規(guī)范意識、口譯培訓(xùn)等若干個角度探究和剖析了產(chǎn)生這一問題的歷史原因和現(xiàn)實(shí)條件，提出我國應(yīng)參照國際標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，結(jié)合我國的具體情況，加快制定和形成統(tǒng)一的口譯行業(yè)規(guī)范，并從口譯培訓(xùn)、
