This chapter examines three recent Norwegian debates on translation sparked off by translation reviews, in which the various agents involved in producing translated texts were granted unusual visibility. The case reflects how discussions on translators’ agency may be of interest for the public sphere in three senses: in disputing unfair judgments on translations, in discussing the quality criteria of translations, and in gatekeeping when the publishers’ quality control mechanisms have fallen short.
