Sumario:At conferences and in the literature on community interpreting there is one burning issue that reappears constantly: the interpreter's role. What are the norms by which the facilitators of communication shape their role? Is there indeed only one role for the community interpreter or are there several?

In this volume scholars and practitioners from different countries address these questions, offering a representative sample.
