Publications from the Section for Sociology of Literature at the Department of Literature, Uppsala University, 38. 272 pp. Uppsala. ISBN 91-85178-28-4. English text. This dissertation deals with the Canadian category publisher Harlequin Enterprises. Operating in a hundred markets and publishing in twenty-four languages around the world, Harlequin Enterprises exempliıes the increasingly transnational character of publishing and the media. This book takes the Stockholm-based Scandinavian subsidiary Förlaget Harlequin as a case-study to analyze the complexities involved in the transposition of Harlequin romances from one cultural context into another. Using a combination of theoretical and empirical approaches it is argued that the local process of translation and editing – here referred to as transediting – has a fundamental impact on how the global book becomes local.

INTRODUCTION Survivors of the Holocaust have repeatedly attempted, with little apparent success, to recover the assets their families deposited in Swiss banks prior to World War II. Considering the claimants' subsequent-yet understandable lack of documentation,- until now these survivors have had to rely solely on the banks' promises to expedite the return of these "dormant accounts" to their rightful owners.' Reliance on such promises, however, quickly evaporated with the public disclosure of one man's experience: Christoph Meili.4 A security guard for the Union Bank of Switzerland (UBS), Meili became an international figure early in 1997.
