A major challenge for authorities in the modern world is the linguistic integration of minorities. In this context, language policies play a key role as authorities are increasingly faced with the challenge of adjusting their language policies in order to secure the linguistic rights and thus the integration of their multilingual populations. In multilingual democracies, these language policies must include choices about the use or non-use of translation. These choices, when they are systematic, become policies of their own in terms of translation. Thus, translation policies arise in part as a consequence of language policies, and there can be no language policy without an attendant translation policy. This article sheds light on the role of translation policies as part of language policy. Specifically, it shows that translation policies can be a tool for integration and recognition or exclusion and neglect of speakers of minority languages and therefore deserve special attention. This is done by comparing the translation policies adopted in Flanders and Wales, both as applied to autochthonous linguistic minorities and allochthonous linguistic minorities. Lessons can be learned from the similarities and differences of translation policies in these two regions.

没有翻译政策就没有语言政策

现代世界当局面临的一个主要挑战是少数民族的语言融合。在这种情况下，语言政策发挥着关键作用，因为当局越来越面临调整语言政策以确保语言权利以及多语种人口融合的挑战。在多语言民主国家，这些语言政策必须包括使用或不使用翻译的选择。这些选择，当它们是系统的时，就成为它们自己的翻译策略。因此，翻译政策的产生部分是语言政策的结果，没有相应的翻译政策就没有语言政策。本文阐明了翻译政策作为语言政策一部分的作用。具体来说，它表明翻译政策可以成为融合和承认或排斥和忽视使用少数民族语言的工具，因此值得特别关注。这是通过比较法兰德斯和威尔士采用的翻译政策来完成的，这两种政策都适用于本土语言少数群体和外来语言少数群体。可以从这两个地区翻译政策的异同中吸取教训。
