The universalizing drives of capitalism, colonialism, and other systems of oppression have precipitated widespread suspicion of any appeal to universality. This has led some, in turn, to champion the very notion of universality as antithetical to these systems of oppression. Similarly, recent scholarship has begun to grapple with the fundamental role of translation not only in forging inclusive democratic politics but also, by contrast, in violence, including imperial expansion and global war. \u003cbr\u003e The present volume advocates neither for nor against translation or universality as such. Instead, it attends to their insurmountable ambiguity and equivocity, the tensions and contradictions that are internal to both concepts and that exist between them. Indeed, the wager of this volume is that translation, universality, and their relationship name irreducible yet overlapping sites of struggle for a diverse array of struggles on the Left.\u003cbr\u003e Drawing from multiple intellectual traditions and orientations, with a special emphasis on deconstruction and Marxism, this volume both reveals and participates in a subterranean current of thought committed to theorizing the dynamic, plural, and ultimately inextricable relationship between translation and universality. Its contributors approach this problem in ways that challenge and unsettle dominant trends within translation studies and critical and postcolonial theory, thereby opening new lines of inquiry within and beyond these fields.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction   1\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eGavin Arnall\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \"Plus d'une langue\": The Paradigm of Translation   57\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eBarbara Cassin\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The Philosopher as Translator   74\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eSouleymane Bachir Diagne\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Babel as Opportunity: Translating Solidarity   87\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eGary Wilder\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Primitive Accumulation, Again   115\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eBen Conisbee Baer\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Psychoanalytic States: Translating from Lenin to Freud and Au-delà   183\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eCate I.
