In its broadest sense, politics is "the ability of a society (a political com mu nity) to ask questions, to formulate short-lived responses, and to invent a series of unsatisfactory connections to bind toge ther its diverse segments" (Houle and Thériault, 2001, p. 66; our trans.).Binding together different political ideas is, of course, about power strug gles, which are at the heart of politics, but it also relates to medi ation, a concept fruitful in both political science (Kydd, 2003;Böhmelt, 2011;Ramirez, 2017) and translation studies (Bedeker and Feinauer, 2009;Bassnett, 2011;Liddicoat, 2016).In translation studies more particularly, the mediation of diverse cultural or ideo logical perspectives has been approached from various angles.For instance, Basil Hatim and Ian Mason, in their classic The Translator as Communicator, have used mediation from a discursive and textual point of view, where translators "intervene in the transfer process, feeding their own knowledge and beliefs into the processing of text" (1997, p. 147).For them, the translation of ideologies becomes a matter of me di ation, in greater or lesser degrees.Other translation scholars have used the concept of mediation from a broader and more global position, such as Maria Tymoczko, who posits that translators are among "the chief meditators between cultures" (2009, p. 184).In any case, the role of translation and the role of translators is never neutral, and the relation between translation and politics is multifaceted and of great interest to professionals, scholars, politicians, and the general public.Policies, like politics, are wide-ranging: as María Sierra Córdoba Serrano and Oscar Diaz Fouces note, public institutions develop poli cies-or public interventions and decision-making responses-to
